Emmylou Harris Your Long Journey Lyrics

Your Long Journey Lyrics

(D. Watson/R. L. Watson)

God`s given us years of happiness here 
Now we must part 
And as the angels come and call for you 
The pains of grief tug at my heart 

Oh my darling 
My darling 
My heart breaks as you take your long journey 

Oh the days will be empty 
The nights so long without you my love 
And when God calls for you I`m left alone 
But we will  meet in heaven above 

Oh my darling 
My darling 
My heart breaks as you take your long journey 

Fond memories i`ll keep of happy ways 
That on earth we trod 
And when I come we will walk hand in hand 
As one in Heaven in the family of God 

Oh my darling 
My darling 
My heart breaks as you take your long journey
