Met with the man all dressed in black
In the church where we were wed
Then and there to me he said
Your young love is never coming back

Had so very few years
In the prime of our younger days
Always in our newlywed phase
Now that love's been replaced by tears

You left the ghost of love
Living in our home
Through the halls of my memory it roams
And I know my angel is watching
From above

Memories are a heavy weight
Drags me down every morn
Makes me wish I'd never been born
To this terrible widow's fate

I remember when I vowed
Forever to be with you
But forever moments were too few
I'm alone again somehow

You left the ghost of love
Living in our home
Through the halls of my memory it roams
And I know my angel is watching
From above

Met with the man all dressed in black
In the church where we were wed
Then and there to me he said
Your young love is never coming back
