Heaven Gained An Angel When I Lost You
Heaven Gained an Angel
When I Lost You
I remember as a child you were always there
Just a phone call away
Is what you used to say
Your voice was always so calming to me
I wish I could hear it now
As my heart is breaking
&
Heaven Gained an Angel
When I Lost You
I remember when I would hear you were
Coming I would count the days
And then on the day you arrived
I would ditch dad to go be with you
I was a daddy’s girl yes
But I was more of a
Grandma’s girl for sure
&
Heaven Gained an Angel
When I Lost You
You knew how to lift me up
When my spirits were down
So many times you gave me
A shoulder to cry on
You could make me smile even
When all I could find was a frown
&
Heaven Gained an Angel
When I Lost You
So many times in life when I have been
At a crossroad and didn’t know
What way to go
All I had to do is think to myself
What would Grandma say?
And I always knew
What to do
&
Heaven Gained an Angel
When I Lost You
I am going to miss the wisecracks
You telling me what to do
I am going to miss
Your wisdom you so readily shared with me
I will always miss the talks we had
Most of all I will always miss
You
&
Heaven Gained an Angel
When I Lost You
So many times you made me laugh
When I felt like I was going to cry
You were the mom I never really had
A Grandma and a
Friend
I really wish time
could stop for just a few
Give me a chance to really say
Good Bye to you
&
Heaven Gained an Angel
When I Lost You
I know you are
watching down on me
I know your love will always be there
I even know you will always be a part of me
However right now
In this moment my heart is still broken
It feels as though
someone punched me in the gut
I can’t even catch my breath
I know it will take time
And it has only been a few days
&
Heaven Gained an Angel
When I Lost You
I know my life will go on
I know you would want it that way
However it will never be the same
I don’t know if I will ever get used to
Not being able to just pick up the phone
Whenever I think of you
Or need someone to talk to
I have a long road ahead of me
I wish you were here to walk with me
But I know you will be watching over me
So here is to you
All the love we shared
And all the love we will share
Until we meet again
Grandma I love you
&
Heaven Gained an Angel
When I Lost You
