Morning breaks the house is cold you're gone to heaven's gate
Coffee brews and memories flood it's hard to face this fate
The fields lay bare our dreams once sown now lost beneath the sky
But in your love I gather strength to push through and survive
The evenings fall the stars come out your voice a ghostly sound
I walk our road alone tonight my steps feel heavy-bound
The barn we built it still stands strong a testament to past
In every nail and beam of wood I find the will to last
I'm holdin' on I'm hangin' tough until I see you there
In a world beyond the sorrow where the stars burn bright and fair
You're my light my guiding star in this long and endless fight
I'll keep on livin' keep believin' till I see you in the night
The kids ask questions 'bout their Ma I fake a brave disguise
I tell 'em stories tuck 'em in hide tears beneath my eyes
Your wedding dress your Sunday best still hangin' in the room
Your spirit dances in the breeze dispelling all the gloom
The seasons change the years roll on but love it knows no time
Your laugh your touch still linger here a rhythm and a rhyme
Some days I struggle to believe that joy will come again
But in your heart I find the beat and in your love the strength
I'm holdin' on I'm hangin' tough until I see you there
In a world beyond the sorrow where the stars burn bright and fair
You're my light my guiding star in this long and endless fight
I'll keep on livin' keep believin' till I see you in the night
