And a hand bag too full for her to hold
I felt her body tremble as I took her in my arms
And she whispered, don't ever let me go.
Chorus:
Then I watched her hang her dresses up and close the closet door
And I watched her put her satin things away
Somehow now I know she won't be leaving anymore
I do believe forever's here to stay.
--- Instrumental ---
It's good to hear her foot steps just walking down the hall
Lord, I wondered would I hear those sounds again
We're picking up the pieces and putting away the past
We've got a lot of broken dreams to mend.
Chorus:
I watched her hang her dresses up and close the closet door
And I watched her put her satin things away
Somehow now I know she won't be leaving anymore
I do believe forever's here to stay.
I do believe forever's here to stay...
She stepped out of the Taxi, with a suitcase in her hand And a hand bag too full for her to hold I felt her body tremble as I took her in my arms And she whispered, don't ever let me go. Chorus: Then I watched her hang her dresses up and close the closet door And I watched her put her satin things away Somehow now I know she won't be leaving anymore I do believe forever's here to stay. --- Instrumental --- It's good to hear her foot steps just walking down the hall Lord, I wondered would I hear those sounds again We're picking up the pieces and putting away the past We've got a lot of broken dreams to mend. Chorus: I watched her hang her dresses up and close the closet door And I watched her put her satin things away Somehow now I know she won't be leaving anymore I do believe forever's here to stay. I do believe forever's here to stay... Explain Request ×
