When We Meet Up Above ( Keep Me A Place )
So often do I think of you as I look
up to the stars, a breath falls on my
shoulders even though the air is still,
Sounds of your laughter sleep in my
hurting heart, why is my life such a
...bitter pill.
Do you still sit on clouds my love
you said you'd never leave,
My morning sky's without your smile
how long ...pray must I grieve.
Do I have to live down here my dear
when you are up above, pray tell me
sweetheart ...why leave me here, I'm
lost without my love, tears they hide
inside my soul, why must we be apart
reach down darling ...from up above
...pray take this broken heart.
