lyrics

When I was just sixteen years old
I had this group of friends
We ran around this town, you know
‘Til the streetlights called us in
One October day, my best girlfriend said to me,
“I’d like to introduce a young man you might like to meet.”

He had an old, red Mercury,
And we asked him for a ride
I really don’t remember when,
But before we got inside,
He looked me in the eye, just as serious as could be,
And said, “Hey, Mary Nell, you’re gonna marry me”

I will never know
Who I would be without him
All I want to know is when I’ll see him again

I met him on his day of birth
He was eighteen years of age
It took a while to fall in love,
But two years later to the day
I walked that chapel aisle down on Union Avenue,
And made a promise always, ever, only to be true

Mike came first, then Doug and Tim
Then we prayed for a girl
Pam, she came one winter’s day
Another precious pearl
Upon a strand we never dreamed would grow to be long
I wish your Pop could see all these kids who’ve come along

I will never know
Who I would be without him
All I want to know is when I’ll see him again

One April day in ‘91
It was time to say goodbye
The cigarettes, they took their toll
And I held him as he died
I have never been the same, and though it’s been so long,
His arms are still the only place I ever will belong

I will never know
Who I would be without him
All I want to know is when I’ll see him again

I don’t want to know
Who I would be without him
All I want to know is when I’ll see him again
