Artist/Band: Bill Monroe
Lyrics for Song: Close By
Lyrics for Album: Country Music Legends [2007]



You've gone so far away, my darling

Each time I think of you I cry

I press your picture to my bosom

Then I feel that you're close by



Years have passed you've not returned dear

Now they say that you have died

But your soul will live forever

Now I know you'll be close by



I saw you last while you were leaving

The tears from you I tried to hide

You took me in your arms and said dear

Your memory I keep close by



They buried you in a lonely graveyard

And a spot they left beside

There I'll sleep till Jesus calls us

So that we can be close by


Album Lyrics: Country Music Legends [2007]
