Love Never Dies

There is a little town way over yonder

By the creek there's a church yard and a tree so tall

She was only forty-seven when she passed away

And though the years go by, still it feels like yesterday

Sitting there by the wood stove

On a cold winter morning

I can see her in her dressing gown

Saying "You'll be late for school"

She had such a gently way

She understood, and with a mother's heart

She loved me like no other could

Now I know that love never dies

I believe it, true hearts never lie

Even though sometimes I cry

I know that love never dies

Midnights and country roads

In the old blue Holden

Saying "Son, if you work hard...

Well you're bound to be a star"

Every show we played from Tamborine to Kerry Town

She was always there

That special face in every crowd

Now I know that love never dies

I believe it, true hearts never lie

Even though sometimes I cry

I know that love never dies

I swear sometimes I feel her

Smiling down on me

How I love that woman

And what she gave to me

So God be her shepherd

And keep her safe and warm

Never let her heart grow weary

Never let her feel alone

And when the angels come to take me

Tell her I won't be afraid

'Cause I know in heaven she waits

For love never dies

I believe it, true hearts never lie

Even though sometimes I cry

I know that love never dies
