Yesterday you were in front of me
Woke up this morning
All of a sudden, you're a memory
Oh, if life is as short as they say it is
I guess we'll meet again sooner than we think we will
And they say a picture says a thousand words
But I would trade a thousand pictures to hear one of yours
I'm not done saying prayers
Like I was writing your letters
'Cause if heaven's far like I think it is
You wouldn't get 'em
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they got you, babe (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I know heaven must be beautiful right now, ooh
Since they got you, babe (Oh-oh)
Since they took you, babe (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
♪
They say that God is full of mysteries
Sometimes I wonder if you tell him that you're missing me
'Cause I miss you everyday
Like they took someone away
Like they took color away and it's grey
Needs to get the hell away from me
And I'm jealous of the angels
('Cause they see you every day)
And I see you when I'm dreaming
(But it doesn't feel the same)
And I know my heart is broken
You can have it anyway
If I could only see you again, again
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they got you, babe (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I know heaven must be beautiful right now, ooh
Since they got you, babe (Oh-oh)
Since they took you, babe (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Give my life for one last time with you, with you
Give my life for one last time with you, with you
Got my spacesuit on, gonna blast off
Take a vacation to where you are
I'm hoping heaven ain't all that far
You passed me by on a shooting star
'Cause I wish so bad, one last chance
Take me back to the photograph
Close my eyes and I feel you laugh
But all I got is a frame and glass
Is it selfishness?
Should've made room for the both of us
Loneliness
I'm not lost, but I got no direction
Parachute gone and I'm falling fast
And my heart stopped, but I'm still breathing
Feel numb, but still I'm feeling
The less I look, the more I'm seeing
I just lost my hero
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they got you, babe (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I know heaven must be beautiful right know, ooh
Since they got you, babe (Oh-oh)
Since they took you, babe (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they got you, babe (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I know heaven must be beautiful right now, ooh
Since they got you, babe (Oh-oh)
Since they took you, babe (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
