Last Kiss
The Cavalier Lyrics

Well, where oh where can my baby be?
I can't find my girlfriend and I don't know where she could be.

The Lord took her away from me.
Unfortunately, God has decided to take her away from me.

She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good,
She has passed away and gone to heaven, so now I need to live a good life to meet her again in the afterlife.

So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
I want to make sure I am good so I can reunite with her when I die.

We were out on a date in my daddy's car.
We were on a date riding in my dad's car.

We hadn't driven very far.
We didn't travel a long distance before our accident occurred.

There in the road, straight ahead ...
I saw an obstruction in the road ahead.

The car was stalled, the engine was dead.
Our car broke down and wouldn't start.

I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right.
I couldn't bring the car to a complete stop, so I attempted to avoid the obstruction by moving to the right side of the road.

Never forget the sound that night ...
I will always remember the sound of the accident that night.

The cryin' tires, the bustin' glass.
I heard the sound of the tires screeching and the glass shattering.

The painful scream that I heard last.
The final sound I heard was the noise of someone's painful screams.

Well, when I woke up, the rain was pourin' down.
When I gained consciousness, there was heavy rainfall.

There were people standing all around.
There were a lot of people nearby when I regained consciousness.

Something warm running in my eyes,
I had tears streaming down my face.

But I found my baby somehow that night.
Luckily, I was able to find my girlfriend that night.

I raised her head, and when she smiled, and said,
I lifted her head and she responded by smiling and speaking to me.

"Hold me darling for a little while."
She asked me to hold her for a brief moment.

I held her close. I kissed her our last kiss.
I held her tightly and we shared a final kiss.

I found the love that I knew I would miss.
In that moment, I recognized how much I truly loved her and would miss her.

But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight.
Despite me holding her tightly in that moment, she has now passed away and is no longer beside me.

I lost my love ... my life, that night.
Unfortunately, her passing means that I lost the love of my life that night.

Well, where oh where can my baby be?
I am still searching for my girlfriend and don't know where she is.

The Lord took her away from me.
I still can't believe she's gone and that God has taken her away from me.

She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good,
Knowing she's in heaven, it inspires me to live an honorable life as well.

So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
I have faith that if I do, I can be with her again when I depart this life.
