WHEN IN HEAVEN – LINDA DAVENPORT
If I ever find my wings
They won’t be made of gold
Just the whispers of the songs I’ve sung
And stories left untold
I’ll rise above the city lights
Where quiet angels roam
And maybe then I’ll understand
The meaning of my own
When in Heaven, I’ll forgive the rain
All the tears I cried in vain
When in Heaven, I’ll let go the pain
And love you once again
All the faces, all the years
Like ripples fade away
The heart remembers tenderness
Long after words decay
If time’s a river, let it flow
Through every joy and fear
And when it meets that silver sea
I’ll know you waited here
When in Heaven, I’ll forgive the rain
All the nights I called your name
When in Heaven, I’ll see you again
And love won’t be the same
No clocks, no chains, no yesterday
Just the light of love’s refrain
And maybe then, beyond the blue
I’ll hear your voice again
There’s a garden past the twilight
Where the wild things softly sing
And every soul I’ve ever loved
Blooms there in early spring
If I could paint that moment’s peace
The colour would be true
A shade of light between the stars
The memory of you
When in Heaven, I’ll forgive the rain
And all that’s lost, I’ll gain
When in Heaven, I’ll find my home
And never walk alone
