WITHOUT YOU…
©Kerrie O’Hearn Marquart
If I should walk upon this earth without you
I would never see the sunset as beautiful as before.
I would never greet the dawn of morning
With a smile and a song like I did before.
I miss the sound of your footfall in the hall
Your smile when you smelled coffee
And the toast popping up for you.
Sitting on the porch to ponder a new day.
I miss your hug and gentle kiss
Together we were such a team
Alone I am but a one-winged moth
When I used to be a butterfly.
Happiness meant being with you Bill
It always did and it always will.
And though my tears flow less often now,
You are deep in my heart and I know that YOU Know.

Wish we could start again
©Kerrie O’Hearn Marquart
I sometimes wish that we could start again
Like when we were young way back when
When lovin’ you was all I ever needed,
You lovin’ me was all you ever needed.
Hand in hand we’d walk a sunny trail
Just lovin’ life and knowing we’d never fail
At love, at life, at anything, we two
As long as we had each other, never blue.
We looked forward to a life that was so rare
So much in love in storms we never cared,
Nothin’ could be wrong when we were two, honey
How blessed I was when God gave me you!
Now I am alone and sometimes blue
But your memory warms my heart ever true
I never thought I would have to walk alone, honey
But still, I wish I could start again with you....
