Yesterday you were in front of me,
Woke up this morning, all of a sudden you're a memory.
If life is as short as they say it is,
I guess we'll meet again sooner than we think we will.
They say a picture says a thousand words,
But I would trade a thousand pictures to hear one of yours.
And I've been saying prayers like I was writing you letters
'Cause if heaven's far like I think it is you wouldn't get 'em.
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they got you, babe
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they took you, babe
They say that god is full of mysteries
Sometimes I wonder if you tell him that you're missing me?
'Cause I miss you everyday like they took summer away
Like they took color away and this grey needs to get the hell away from me.
And I'm jealous of the angels 'cause they see you everyday
And I see you when I'm dreaming, but it doesn't feel the same.
And I know my heart is broken, you can have it anyway
If I could only see you again.
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they got you, babe
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they took you, babe
I'd give my life for one last time with you.
I'd give my life for one last time with you.
Got my spacesuit on, gonna blast off
Take a vacation to where you are
Hoping heaven ain't all that far
And you passed me by on a shooting star
'Cause I wish so bad, one last chance
Take me back to the photograph
I close my eyes and I feel you laugh but all I got is a frame and a glass.
Is it selfishness? Shoulda made room for the both of us
Loneliness
I'm not lost but I've got no direction.
Parachute gone and I'm falling fast.
My heart has stopped but I'm still breathing.
Gone numb but still I'm feeling
The less I look the more I'm seeing I just lost my hero.
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they got you, babe
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they took you, babe
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they got you, babe
I know heaven must be beautiful right now
Since they got you, babe
Since they took you, babe
