You lay there fighting for each breath
|
While angels hovered round your bed
|
With open arms like God¡¯s own smile
|
They led you to the light
|
|
What a battle you have won
|
And now your journey has begun
|
To the land where spirits fly
|
And your soul will never die
|
|
Chorus
|
Travel lightly in my heart
|
You and I will never part
|
Far beyond this world we see
|
There¡¯s a place for you and me
|
|
And I thank my lucky stars
|
We had a chance to heal our scars
|
Now I don¡¯t have to hang my head
|
Over things I wish I¡¯d said
|
|
(Repeat)
|
So here am I your only son
|
I¡¯m thinking back on work we¡¯ve done
|
You were strong and I was young
|
Man we had our fights
|
|
And every thing I felt for you
|
Has been turned to something new
|
And this is love I feel today
|
It will never go away
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
|
And I thank the moon and stars
|
We had a chance to heal our scars
|
Now I don¡¯t have to hang my head
|
Over things I wish I¡¯d said
|
|
I don¡¯t have to hide my tears
|
I don¡¯t have to drown my fears
|
And I don¡¯t have to hang my head
|
Over things I (C) wish I¡¯d said
|
|
No I don¡¯t have to live in dread
|
Over things I wish I¡¯d said
|
