I think of you, Mom, when forever crosses my mind Your laughter echoes in every joke I hear, You’d always find a way to make it shine You come to me out of the blue While watching those quirky films you'd love to critique Your voice, so vivid, always speaks First in line, you always were So why would heaven be any different? I’m sorry I didn’t say this sooner—there’s so much I want to know Is there a place up there Where you’ve got a cherished chair? Where you gather with kindred spirits And paint the heavens with your tales? Do you find a secret spot To watch the sunsets melt and blend? And, oh Is there a melody you long to share? Yeah, I know You'll tell me when I get there, and I'm sorry it took so long Do you think of me? Do you wish I'd savor life's gentle pauses? I'm sorry for rushing past those moments Are there scenes up there that feel like home? Are you climbing celestial trees? Composing new, heavenly melodies? I hope you are I know you are Is there a place up there Where you’ve got a cherished chair? Where you laugh with kindred spirits And let your stories light up the cosmos? I’m sorry, Mom, for not being there more Do you find a secret spot To watch the sunsets melt and blend? And, oh Is there a melody you long to share? Yeah, I know You'll tell me when I get there, and again, I'm sorry Yeah, yeah You'll tell me when I get there Save me a place Among your treasures of wisdom and love I’m sorry for the times we missed I'll make my share of mistakes But I know you'll be there as I learn 'Til I'm through 'Til I'm with you Is there a place up there Where you’ve got a cherished chair? Where you laugh with kindred spirits And let your spirit soar in timeless wonder? I’m sorry if I never said it enough Do you find a secret spot To watch the sunsets melt and blend? And, oh Is there a melody you long to share? Yeah, I know You'll tell me when I get there, and I’m so sorry I think of you, Mom, when I think about forever Though I'm sorry, your love lights my path, guiding me with hope, until we meet again.
