Backstory:
Before she became my wife, she spent the night with me for the very first time, and had to leave very early the next morning. I saw this hair on her pillow and thought 'What if this never happens again?' and all I have left to remind me of this night is this one hair and a memory. I didn't go back to bed until I had written the lyric.
Lyrics:
VERSE 1:
I roll over to hold you
But you're no longer there
Just an empty pillow
"Cept for one golden hair
One hair on your pillow
Where your head once laid
A night to remember
That will never fade away
CHORUS:
One hair and a memory
All that's left of you for me
A golden thread to hold on to
That binds me forever
Will tie me forever
Yeah bind me forever with you
VERSE 2:
What a time we shared
Before we shared the night
The drinks and the dancing
The holding each other tight
The memory of it all
The love that we made
Just a hair on the pillow
Where your head once laid
REPEAT CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
I know I should be happy
But I already feel the strain
Of wondering if I'll ever
Have you next to me again
REPEAT CHORUS:
