Dolly Parton
The Last One to Touch Me
[Verse 1]
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
I want you to be the last one to touch me
[Verse 2]
The last thing I remember before I go to sleep
Is the touch of your sweet lips softly kissing me
Then I go to sleep thinking how happy you make me
I want you to be the last one to touch me
[Verse 3]
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, oh, then I can sleep in peace
I want you to be the last one to touch me
[Verse 4]
And when the night is over and time will be no more
They tell me 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
[Outro]
I want you to be the first, the last
The only one to touch me
