Beloved Wife (Live Version)

You were the love for certain of my life;
you were simply my beloved wife.
I don't know for certain how I'll live my life,
now alone without my beloved wife, my beloved wife.
I can't believe I've lost the very best of me.

You were the love for certain of my life;
you were simply my beloved wife.
I don't know for certain how I'll live my life,
now alone without my beloved wife,my beloved wife.
I can't believe I've lost the very best of me.

You were the love for certain of my life,
for fifty years, simply my beloved wife.
With another love I'll never lie again.
It's you I can't deny; it's you I can't defy.
A depth so deep into my grief without my beloved soul,
I renounce my life as my right
now alone without my beloved wife, my beloved wife.

My love is gone;
would it be wrong if I should surrender all the joy in my life
and go with her tonight?
My beloved wife.
