Comin' To You

Now at night I lay alone in bed
I wipe away the tears I've shed
But you're still gone and could care less, do you?
Oh heaven's dove has left her love
she gone to be with God above
So here I lay and dream of comin' to you
 
Comin' to you, Comin' to you
Comin' to you, Comin' to you

 A vial of pills sits side the bed
 and waits for me to tilt my head
But, He won't let me get there that way will you?
I'd rise then fall, for He won't call
until I've kissed the wailing wall
So here I lay and dream of comin' to you

Comin' to you, Comin' to you
Comin' to you, Comin' to you

The years have come the pains still here
some thoughts of you are crystal clear
But your still gone and I still care, do you?
I search the sky for your on high
my need for you I'll not deny
So here I lay and dream of comin' to you

Comin' to you, Comin' to you
Comin' to you, Comin' to you

I saw the Doctor just yesterday
He said the cancer' has had its way  
But, all I see's an open gate before you..
I see a dove she flies above
a holy ghost that's full of love
So here I lay but I'll be comin' to you

Comin' to you, Comin' to you
Comin' to you, Comin' to you


*dedicated to all whose love's have past
know they're waiting....

Halleluyah! ;-) You got this bang on! Line 3: you're, line 4, Heaven's, other: pain's, you're still gone, you or you're on high (?) PS--- this could have been written by my dad. My stepmom and he had cancer at the same time. She was diagnosed and died within 5 weeks, and he fought for almost two more years. xox Dee love what you wrote...
