[Verse 1]
Beside a new made grave, heartbroken
My love for her won't let me go away
And leave her there to sleep forever
All alone beneath that lonely mound of clay
[Chorus]
Oh, Lord, why did you take her from me
Why didn't you take me away
So I could have been there beside her
All alone beneath that lonely mound of clay
[Verse 2]
Many times I've looked toward heaven
And prayed she wouldn't go away
But this sinner's prayer wasn't answered
So she's sleeps beneath that lonely mound of clay
[Chorus]
Oh, Lord, why did you take her from me
Why didn't you take me away
So I could have been there beside her
All alone beneath that lonely mound of clay
