  in '41, you met a brown-eyed boy
  called you pretty
 He'd walk every  couple miles out of his way
 To hold your hand and keep  company
 Your mama said, don't call it love at 
  sittin' on that front porch swing
 
 He gave you his  in a locket
 That you wore  your neck
 Left it right beside  heart
 So  would not forget
 The way it felt when he held your 
 And you swore that  would never take it off
 And the butterflies  felt said it all
 You were falling for the boy inside  locket
 
 Back in  the brown-eyed boy went overseas
 And had to leave town for  little while
 He  he'd marry you
 As soon as the war was 
 You would  his wife
 Standing in the  rain
 You cried as you watched  ride away
 
 But everyday
 You had his picture in  locket
 That  wore around your neck
 Left it  beside your heart so you would not forget
 The way his kiss tasted  your lips
 And everyday  like a lifetime with him gone
 And you prayed that God would  him safely home
 'Cause you  a promise
 To the  inside your locket
 
 Oh, 60  you two had together
 But he's been gone for a couple 
  it breaks my heart to see you struggle to remember
 But  been writing all your memories down
 And  stopped by today
  read a couple pages
 Grandma, you sure look 
 And you  that smile
 The one I haven't seen  quite a while
 And you said to me, I want you to 
 
 His picture in  locket that I wore around my neck
 The one I left beside my  so I would not forget
 The greatest love and the greatest 
 I've ever known
 But it's gettin' time for me to  on home
 She said, that brown-eyed boy is 
  I don't want to keep him long
 Heaven is calling
 And  said, my heart is longing
 For the boy  your locket
