Lyrics
It's been another anniversary,
Since you were taken from me,
But I still think about you every day.
Every once in a while when I am feeling blue,
I'll take a drive and I'll talk with you.
And I'll pick up our favorite flowers on the way.
Drivin' through that cemetery
Sure looks dark and cold,
So I'm headed to a place that we used to go.
(First Chorus:) Where there's no grave for the flowers,
We used to sit and talk for hours,
Lying on a blanket in the shade.
I miss your touch; I miss your laughter,
It made the time go so much faster.
But I'm glad you're in a better place,
Where there's no grave for the flowers.
Sometimes I stare at the phone
And wish you would call.
Then I go to bed and hardly sleep at all.
But when I do I still dream of you.
I dream we're in a place no one hurts,
I wake up late and it's back to work,
Yeah, I struggle but I know I'll make it through.
And everywhere I look,
I see more headstones in a row.
So, I'm looking toward the day
When Jesus takes me home.
(Second Chorus:) Where there's no grave for the flowers,
We're gonna sit and talk for hours.
I can't wait to see your smiling face.
Gonna feel your touch, gonna hear your laughter,
Gonna live forever.
Cause I know we'll both be in a place,
Where there's no grave for the flowers.
(Bridge:) I see your name; I see your face,
Where the memorial stands tall.
But, one day soon, I'll have much more
Than your picture on the wall
(Second Chorus Repeat)
