Lyrics Rosanne Cash

Rosanne Cash

I Was Watching You

Headlights on a Texas road

Hank Williams on the radio

Church wedding, they spent all they had

Now the deal is done to become Mom and Dad

And I was watching you from above

Cause long before life, there was love

See those little girls dressed like china dolls

All for one, then one by one they fall

High on a hill while the world passes by

You never came back, but I know you tried

'Cause I was watching you from above

When it all falls apart, there is love

All those years to prove how much I care

I didn't know it, but you were always there

Till September when you slipped away

In the middle of my life on the longest day

Now I hear you say

I'll be watching you from above

Cause long after life, there is love

Baby I'll be watching you from above

Long after life, there is love.
