I heard this old country song on my way to work, and I was so touched by the song. Here is the link to the song:

And here is the lyrics:

**********************************************

Words and Music by Skip Ewing and Max T. Barnes

I read a note my grandma wrote
back in nineteen twenty-three.
Grandpa kept it in his coat,
and he showed it once to me.
He said, "Boy, you might not understand,
but a long, long time ago,
Grandma's daddy didn't like me none,
but I loved your Grandma so.
"We had this crazy plan to meet
and run away together.
Get married in the first town we came to,
and live forever.
But nailed to the tree
where we were supposed to meet, instead
Of her, I found this letter,
and this is what it said:
If you get there before I do,
don't give up on me.
I'll meet you when my chores are through;
I don't know how long I'll be.
But I'm not gonna let you down,
darling wait and see.
And between now and then,
till I see you again,
I'll be loving you.
Love, me.
I read those words just hours before
my Grandma passed away,
In the doorway of a church
where me and Grandpa stopped to pray.
I know I'd never seen him cry
in all my fifteen years;
But as he said these words to her,
his eyes filled up with tears.
If you get there before I do,
don't give up on me.
I'll meet you when my chores are through;
I don't know how long I'll be.
But I'm not gonna let you down,
darling wait and see.
And between now and then,
till I see you again,
I'll be loving you.
Love, me.
Between now and then,
till I see you again,
I'll be loving you.
Love, me.
