Life Beyond Me
Far away is she, into another life
Now it’s another man for whom she’s been a’courting
There’s a feeling here, it’s a long time coming
That the life she leaves behind is a bittersweet one
But that’s the way it goes
And that’s the way it should be
She starts another life that’s way beyond me
He’s a lucky man, she’s a lucky girl
Now that they found each other, never let it be put asunder
For the happiness, and the kids to come
For the time I see her lost in the ways of another
She’ll come to visit, and for an hour or so
The past returns and I feel like nothing’s happened
And then she’s gone again, and then it’s me again
Trying hard to find a place to be again
