Roseanne Cash – I Was Watching You lyrics

Headlights on a Texas road
Hank Williams on the radio
a church wedding, they spent all they had
now the deal is done to become mom and dad

And I was watching you
from above
long before life
there was love

See those little girls dressed like china dolls
all for one, then one by one they fall
high on a hill where the world passes by
you never came back but I know you tried

Cause I was watching you
from above
when it all falls apart
there is love

All these years to prove how much I care
I didn't know it, but you were always there
until September when you slipped away
in the middle of my life
on the longest day
now I hear you say

I'll be watching you
from above
cause long after life
there is love
Baby, I'll be watching you
from above
long after life
there is love
