I Was Watching You Lyrics

Cover art for I Was Watching You lyrics by Rosanne Cash

Written out of such deep love for her dad, Johnny Cash, she writes how her love was there --- even before she was born, even after he dies -- that the bond of love supercedes the span of a lifetime.

She describes her parent's wedding, the breakup of their marriage -- "You never came back but I know you tried"
Then the day he died, "Until September when you slipped away" he died September 12, 2003.

What a beautiful song -- that love does indeed tie us together even beyond a single life span.
