Blowing Kisses to Heaven

                         Each night I close my eyes
                          And I lay my head to rest
                       I whisper soft words to heaven
                     Another day gone, I've done my best

                       Sweet words of thankful praise
                     Loving gestures right from the heart
                      I know from heaven you watch me
                    Giving me strength, each day to start

                      Now I walk this rocky road of life
                        Without you to hold my hand
                     Even though I feel alone sometimes
                    Now to my side you have sent another
                                  man

                     He will never take your place daddy
                     He will just pick up where you left off
                    Now he will guide me through troubled
                                  times
                      And help me to find what I've lost

                     Even though you no longer walk this
                               earth Daddy
                     You will walk an eternity through my
                                  heart
                    I will never forget what you mean to me
                         Even though we are apart

                   As I once walked you to heaven's gates,
                      My love now leads me through life
                    Though I spent my youth your daughter
                         I will soon become his wife

                     I remember you holding me on your
                                shoulders
                      Taking walks with me in the park
                         Scaring away the goblins
                     While I lay at night alone in the dark

                        But don't you fret another day
                         I'm safe in his strong arms
                    And just as you did through my young
                                   life
                       He will protect me from all harm

                       One day we'll be together again
                       Where we left off, we will restart
                    Until then I'll blow my kisses to heaven
                    Because Daddy I saved all yours in my
                                  heart.
