Was that you, swirling all around me?
Was it you, who stirred those pretty leaves?
Where are you? Sitting on a rainbow?
Is that you, smiling down on me?
Were you laughing, while I ran from the bumblebee?
"Pictures"
(for my Daddy)
Surrounded by pictures
Pictures of you
In the pictures you are laughing
And the skies are all blue
I have so many pictures
Smiling all around the room
I'm glad I have these pictures
But I wish that I had you
They don't ever talk to me
They don't ever laugh out loud
They don't reach out to give a needed hug
They don't ever make a sound
These pictures are all priceless
Times I wish I had again
But somehow they can't see me
I can only see them
I was always taking pictures
And now I am glad I did
They're all that I have left of you
And my heart will never mend
I have so many pictures
Smiling all around the room
And I'm glad I've got these pictures
But I wish that I had you
And I'm glad I have these pictures, but I wish .......
that I .........
had you.
Did you send that butterfly to say hello?
When it's raining, and splashing at my feet,
Are you, there watching, and smiling down on me?
Chorus: So how is Heaven?
Are you singing with the angels?
You're finally home, and you're not hurting anymore.
I'll see you around, when my work is over.
I'll see you then,
If not before.
Did you lead me to that four leaf clover?
Are you catching, sweet sunshine in your hands?
Did you leave that penny in my pocket?
Telling me, to save them when I can.
Are you the reason, that I fell off the ladder?
And somehow it didn't hurt at all.
Did you send angels to surround me?
And to catch me when I fall.
The twinkle of the fireflies on a background of stars.
They say it's beautiful and happy where you are.
The sparkle of the ocean, and the seashells in the sand.
Won't be as beautiful, as when I see you again.
Chorus: So how is Heaven?
Are you singing with the angels?
You're finally home, and you're not hurting anymore.
I'll see you around, when my work is over.
I'll see you then...
I'll see you then...
If not before.
