God looked around his garden
And found an empty place
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw his tired face
He put his arms around him
And lifted him to rest
God's garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best
He knew that he was suffering
He knew he was in pain
He knew that he would never
Get well on earth again
He saw the road was getting rough
And the hills were hard to climb
So he closed his weary eyelids
And whispered "Peace Be Thine"
It broke our hearts to lose him
But he didn't go alone
For part of us went with him
The day God called him home.
Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
And now it's too late to hold you
'Cause you've flown away
So far away
Never had I imagined
Living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive
Alive
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
Darling, I never showed you
Assumed you'd always be there
I took your presence for granted
But I always cared
And I miss the love we shared
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
Although the sun will never shine the same
I'll always look to a brighter day
Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen as I pray
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
