Until All Things Have Passed Away

Until all
things have
passed away, my
love will be for
you

And when
this earth has
nothing left, my
love will still
stand true

My love
will be for
you my dear,
when the earth
is kneeling down

Standing
steady while all
the world is
crumbling all
around

I want
you to know
the love you
have is a love
that’s very strong

A love
that’ll survive
the earth’s
destruction and
last forever long

Things in
this world
will pass away,
but my love
will still stand true

When the
earth is dead,
there will be life,
my love still living
for you

Good morning Marquis, I love the stain of love you will leave behind. I'm going to imagine since love will never die the prettiest aroma left behind by you for all eternity. I love the way your love will stand strong forever. hug hug }°{ Linda
