Well they say a part of Rachel died

The day her true love took his life

She stayed on at the old homestead

And sleeps alone in a cold, cold bed

She doesn't need no-one

She drives into town in her old tray back

Down thirty miles of dusty track

And still she wears thatmold black veil

Lips so red and skin so pale

I wonder if she knows

CHORUS

Rachel, I can't stop loving you

Tell me is there nothin' I can do

Oh how I long to lay my lonely head

On the empty pillow there on Rachel's bed

In her silent eyes I search for a sign

That maybe she'll she the love in mine

When she goes by my head goes spinnin'

I wanna call her name but my nerves not willin'

I wonder if it shows

CHORUS

Well they say a part of Rachel died

The day her true love took his life

She stayed on at the old homestead

And sleeps alone in that cold, cold bed

But I wonder if she knows

Rachel, I can't stop loving you

Tell me is there nothin' I can do

Oh how I long to lay my lonely head

On the empty pillow there on Rachel's bed

Oh how I long to lay my lonely head

On the empty pillow there on Rachel's bed
