Please let there be a heaven.

Please let there be a heaven,
Somewhere soft beyond the sky,
Where the ones I’ve lost are waiting
And the tears I hide can finally dry.

Please let there be a doorway
Where the hurt can fall away,
Where the memories don’t tremble
And the grief has nothing left to say.

Because my heart still reaches for them
In the quiet of the night,
And I whisper to the shadows
Hoping somehow they’ll hear my plight.

I long to see their faces
Lit by peace instead of pain,
To hold the ones I’ve buried
And say their names out loud again.

If heaven is a promise,
Let it be a gentle one,
A place where love keeps breathing
Long after life is done.

Please let there be a heaven,
Where goodbyes are undone and healed,
Where arms I miss so desperately
Can pull me close and hold me still.

For until the day I follow
Where their silent footsteps roam,
My heart will keep on praying
That there’s a place that feels like home.

Please let there be a heaven,
I need to know the sorrow breaks,
That someday, beyond this world,
I’ll see my lost loved ones again.
