Walk away leave with my blessing Once in awhile, let me hear from you If we never meet again, before my life is over I'll leave this world loving you You can take every thing but my memories For they're good ones and they'll see me through If we never meet again, I'll love you forever I'll leave this world loving you You were mine for a time, and I'm thankful Oh but life would be lonesome without you If we never meet again, this side of heaven I'll leave this world loving you If we never meet again, this side of heaven I'll leave this world loving you
