Things In Life

[VERSE 1]
Look up, look down that lonesome road
Hang down your head and cry
For we often lose some things in life
That make us wonder why

[VERSE 2]
Oh the fairest love I ever had
Now sleeps beneath the clay
And I live in hopes and dreams of her
That we’ll meet again someday

[VERSE 3]
I often sit and wonder why
Life has to be this way
But after all is said and done
I’m sure God has his say

[VERSE 4]
I’d like to be a small part of life
With some few things to achieve
Just to know I’ve been a fruitless cause
Would give my poor heart grief

[VERSE 5]
Now as you lower my casket down
In some lonesome grave to rest
You could take one last look at my face
And say I did my best
