GONE JUST LIKE THE COTTON by The Cox Family
I dreamed she recalls when they were first married
A home and children to raise
The work of her smile and the faith that she carries,
It's a blessing that still gives today.
When duty called he was yielding and callous,
But for her love his only display.
He weathered his storms
In a church house he'd tell her
And at his table for God's grace he'd pray.
Now they're gone, just like the cotton,
In their valley's a field full of stone,
No hearth to burn, the home for their candle,
And the light from their window is still.
Gone, but never forgotten
Their words carve a silent appeal
I long to return to your daddy and mama
And someday, you know I will!
Time is always a treasure
When we seem so far away,
And my heart aches for life's simple pleasure
I'll go down that old lane
That I walk through my memory
Until I can come home to stay.
Gone, just like the cotton
In their valley's a field full of stone
No hearth to burn, the home for their candle
And the light from their window is still
Gone, but never forgotten
Their words carve a silent appeal
I long to return to your daddy and mama
And someday, you know I will!
