Earth then heaven


I'm an old man my life tells the story led in a hospice bed confused an poorly I seen a light the cancer was gone I stood up and walked from where I was from I feel my self happy I've not felt in long while I woke up this morning in the mirror smiled My wife was alive my kids was so young we sat down for dinner today, on the night time I sung My wife was dancing through the window moon shone Her smile made me cry from her beauty full on I said I love you, she said I do you to Ron She pulled me closer all pain was gone She hugged me kissed me as the clock struck eleven In her gentle voice She told me we would wake up in heaven.
