(Verse 1) The morning came, but you weren’t here, Your laughter echoes in my ears. Tiny shoes by the doorway stay, Like they’re waiting for you to play. (Pre-Chorus) I whisper your name to the evening sky, And hope you hear, though I can’t see why. (Chorus) Heaven holds you now, my son, While I’m left beneath this sun. Every breath is a missing sound, Till my heart can turn around. (Verse 2) I chase your dreams in silver rain, Trying to wash away the pain. Stars remind me of your eyes, Gentle sparks that never die. (Bridge) If love could fly, I’d break the clouds, Reach your hands beyond the shrouds. Keep you close where angels sing, My heart forever offering. (Final Chorus) Heaven holds you now, my son, But I’ll hold on till my race is run. When my time comes, don’t make a sound— Just smile, I’m homeward bound. (Outro) Sleep, my child, the pain is gone, Heaven holds you… but you’re still my own.
