In bed without her beside me. Dreams is the one place she finds me. I think of the last look she gave me She was the one Now she has gone who can save me. Chorus The grass that we laid on Where true love was made on Is where the sunsets And now lays shade on. I loved her just like the ocean she wrote of I loved her just like the mountains she spoke of And when the sun sets I’ll have no regrets Because these are the gifts that most hope of. I go the places we went to Cry at the places we meant to, And when the pain gets too much I remember your touch And that love this strong Is a gift God can only lend you. Chorus And the grass has now withered away but our children still go there and play. I see the mountains around us And know you have found us In the wind and the rain God has bound us. I loved her just like the stars that she counted, Loved just like wild horses she mounted And when my time is done We’ll rise like the sun And we’ll shine upon memories we founded.

The irony of time - the order of things is wrong. Clean up a few grammar gaps.

Aren't you, like, Welsh?

This isn't really a country song. Real country music these days is filled with boasts about the singer's anti-intellectualism. Here's one I just heard (in an Old Town Amman shawerma stand, no less!): http://ww2.lafayette.edu/~shuppr/lamusic/pina.htm
