There is a little town way over yonder By the creek there's a church yard and a tree so tall She was only forty-seven when she passed away And though the years go by, still it feels like yesterday Sitting there by the wood stove On a cold winter morning I can see her in her dressing gown Saying 'You'll be late for school' She had such a gently way She understood, and with a mother's heart She loved me like no other could Now I know that love never dies I believe it, true hearts never lie Even though sometimes I cry I know that love never dies Midnights and country roads In the old blue Holden Saying 'Son, if you work hard... Well you're bound to be a star' Every show we played from Tamborine to Kerry Town She was always there That special face in every crowd Now I know that love never dies I believe it, true hearts never lie Even though sometimes I cry I know that love never dies I swear sometimes I feel her Smiling down on me How I love that woman And what she gave to me So God be her shepherd And keep her safe and warm Never let her heart grow weary Never let her feel alone And when the angles come to take me Tell her I won't be afraid 'Cause I know in heaven she waits For love never dies I believe it, true hearts never lie Even though sometimes I cry I know that love never dies
