Heaven this Christmas
This is a time for tidings and cheer,
missing a loved one is tough every year,
we should keep in mind that they also miss us,
I wish I could drive to Heaven this Christmas.
Hearing a song or seeing the lights,
stoking the fire on winter's cold nights,
All we needed was Grandma to kiss us,
load up the car we're driving to Heaven this Christmas.
Try not to be sad,
I'll do my part,
to keep them alive,
in my mind and my heart.
I cherish the memories,
I've asked for forgiveness,
I will not forget you in Heaven this Christmas.
