When the storm clouds gather and I'm losing my mind
She stands right beside me she lights up my day
She's the one thing I found in a world that's gone wrong
She's the words and the music to the world's finest song.
Chorus:
Lord let me keep her
at least for a while
I promise I'll love her
'till I've walked my last mile
When your trumpets are sounding
and you've played my song
Don't send me no angels
'cause I've got my own.
She stayed with me thru the hard times that's still goin' on
That old feeling between us it's still coming on strong
When my eyes close forever and my last breath is gone
Don't send me no angels 'cause I've got my own.
Chorus:
Lord let me keep her
at least for a while
I promise I'll love her
'till I've walked my last mile
When your trumpets are sounding
and you've played my song
Don't send me no angels
'cause I've got my own.
