Chely Wright - The Love He Left Behind Lyrics
I talk to him everyday
Even though he's oh-so-far away
And every night I lay in bed
And hug the pillow where he laid his head
And in my dreams I drift back to that high school kiss
I see our wedding day and it takes my breath away
Once again, like it did back then
[Chorus:]
I'm living on the love her left me
And he gave me so much love in such a little time
And that kind of love is hard to find
One day we'll meet again in that sweet by-and-by
But till we're back together
Our little boy down the hall
Is trying to teach me how to play baseball
Yesterday, I got choked up
When he said, Mommy, You use daddy's glove
I turned down a thousand bucks
For his old pick-up truck
I'm hangin' on to everything that's part of him
I'll hold him in my heart
Till I can hold him in my arms
Once again
But till then
[Chorus]
But till we're back together
I'm living on the love he left behind

Sad country music blackballed her. Their loss.
So charming and romantic music by Chely Wright, so sentimental.
I love you. Don't go!!!!!
Starla?
simply beautiful
This particular song's "a hard one" for myself, linked to a number of unique difficulties tied to "Kentucky"; involving "their" vs. "my" comprehension of what's "right"/"wrong" in a very important relationship between "Psychiatrists' confidentiality" (e.g., my own) vs. "Attorneys'/Judges' "assumed-to-be" correct facts/behaviors "in/out" of the courtroom. "Lesser" qualified individuals (exampled as the noted "Jurists" of Kentucky) "separate" people with "higher" credentials/behavioral skills, from those with "lower" credentials; unlawfully. This results in "the absent parent" who suffers when the "offspring" dies (as in my case) as a result of "improper parenting skills," as practiced/employed by the noted "Jurists" for their own self-aggrandizement. The result's the "loss" of the parent/offspring (natural pregnancy) relationship, linked to "incredible odds" against the "offspring" (without the more well-educated/sophisticated parent's input); exampled loss as in this "heartbreaking" song (well-sung; truthful "hypothesized" song's situation).
I have loved this song from the first time I heard it. Before she even make a mark in the world of country music.
I'll leave her coming out to her & her maker.. as for this song.. I love it.. I think it's her best song & it's one of my favorite songs !!! I'm gonna say a prayer for Chely & let God take care of the rest !!!
well Mickeylove01 you got your answer! that private joke isn't so private anymore...
Idk what to even say to that. I haven't cried like that in a long time, and I'm sorry for the people who know what she's feeling.
