She loved the flowers in her room They helped ease the pain deep inside of her And even though she could not move Her presence lit the universe {pre-chorus}: Sometimes she had dreams She was soaring over golden streets But what did they mean? I asked her and she smiled as she said {chorus}: "I know heaven waits for me So don't you shed a tear We'll live eternally, I'll be waiting for you there" I never knew her in this world Though I heard her voice through her written words And even as the years unfurl My faith is nothing compared to hers And everything is perfect there There's no more pain and no more tears I've seen it in my dreams And I have heard the singing in my ears The forever song
