The last one to touch me

The last one to touch me Lyrics

(Dolly Parton)


If there ever was an angel, then surely you must be one

If there ever was a perfect love when I look at you I see one

If there's heaven on earth, then this must surely be

And I want you to be the last one to touch me

The last thing I remember before I go to sleep

Is the touch of your sweet lips softly kissing me

And I go to sleep athinking how happy you make me

And I want you to be the last one to touch me


And when it's time to lay me down for my eternal sleep

Once more let your fingers softly touch my cheek

If I know that you have touched me, then I can sleep in peace

And I want you to be the last one to touch me


And when the night is over and time will be no more

They say that we shall meet again upon the golden shore

And so when I awaken from my eternal sleep

I want you to be the first one to touch me

I want you to be the first, the last, the only one to touch me
