In Loving Memories Songtext
von Jerry Lee Lewis

Well
I stand here so solemn with a blank look on my face
As you lay there dressed in pure white lace
With my head bowed, Lord, tears are streaming down
I can hear that old preacher man say

"In loving memories, we gather
In loving memories, on this sad day
In loving memories forever
Until we meet beyond the shining river"


Pretty flowers, I′ll plant around you
And a white fence will surround you
And on your marker, words of love
I'll inscribe, yes, I will, darlin′

Though in death, we're apart
Darlin', you′ll always be in my old heart
(And it won′t) it won't be long (be long)
′Til, I'll (til, I′ll) by your side (be by your side)
Oh, lord, I'll be by your side

In loving memories, we gather
In loving memories on this sad day
In loving memories forever
Until we meet beyond the shining river
Yes, that′s that right, beyond that old river
Until we meet beyond the shining river, ooh
