Tim Rushlow The Package
In '42 they fell in love, love at first sight
In '43 they walked the aisle, a groom and his bride
In '44 he went to war to fight for Uncle Sam
How it tore his heart apart, he missed his precious Anne
And when the doorbell rang
You know it scared her so
They handed her the package
And this is what he wrote
Here's a little something to help you get through
I know it ain't much, but it was all that I could do
My heart is with you and you know I love you still
Until I'm holding you again, love will
In '63 he was out of town, all flights delayed
20 years of marriage, all the kids were home that day
He did the best he could with the phone lines jammed
How it tore his heart apart, he missed his precious Anne
And when the doorbell rang
You know it scared her so
They handed her the package
And this is what he wrote
Here's a little something to help you get through
I know it ain't much, but it was all that I could do
My heart is with you and you know I love you still
Until I'm holding you again, love will
Just a single long stemmed rose
With his letter tucked inside
To show her she was in his heart
Forever on his mind
In '93 he was holding on with all his might
He gave her one last wink and he passed on in the night
Bill knew his time was short so he had a little plan
He was saving something special for his precious Anne
So when the doorbell rang
Those old familiar notes
They handed her the package
And this is what he wrote
Here's a little something to help you get through
I know it ain't much, but it was all that I could do
My heart is with you and you know I love you still
Until I'm holding you again, love will
(Love always will)
Until I'm holding you again, love will
