The Heart
Nancy McDonald 1968 (Blytheville, Arkansas)
If you are missing a loved one in Heaven
This is what you do
You speak to them through your heart
And they will hear you
It's the language of love that can be felt
When words can't be expressed
It's one heart speaking to another
With each ones feelings being expressed
Just stop and catch the vibes
Their messages will be clear
Then you won't feel so lonesome
For they will always be near
For the heart is very powerful
It has no boundaries when it comes to love
It's messages can be sent back and forth
From Earth to Heaven above
