I'll Be Over You

You said that I’d forget you and my heart would heal in time
It’s been a lifetime darling since I’ve called you mine
And my heart’s still aching for you and your memory’s all I hold
But one day I’ll forget you cause there’s a place I’ll go

Way back up in the mountains, on a hill deep in the pines
There’s a shady, quiet, peaceful place your memory just can’t find
It’s marked by a stone that reads no more missing you
Six feet ‘neath Carolina clay I’ll be over you

In the shadows on this hillside, will you say goodbye to me
With folded hands they’ll let me down and here I’ll rest in peace
In the ashes and the dust, they’ll be no more missing you
Beneath the Carolina clay I’ll be over you
