Poem
If Heaven Could Wait by Kenny Davis If heaven could wait If only for a year If only, but a slight moment longer One chance more to hold her near If heaven could only wait If only just for a night That my eyes may have a chance at one last glance At her beauty once more in the moonlight If heaven could only wait If only for one last sunrise A moment to gaze upon the majestic horizon As the sun glistens from her eyes If heaven could only wait If only for an hour Time to hold her tight Before a time spent without her Lord, why would you bless me with a love like this Only to have it taken away Can I please just have this one moment longer? Oh, if heaven could only wait If heaven could only wait All I simply ask for is time For the man who is blessed to have her heart And for the woman proudly holding mine Is it possible for heaven to wait? If only for, but a season One last chance to cherish moments with her Please allow me this minute more within reason Lord, please understand Leaving her so soon, is very hard To call up my soul from hers Would cause me to shed heartbroken tears from the stars Can Heaven have a time to wait? To avoid this momentary hurt Although I would love nothing more than to be with you Lord She is, but my only tie here to this Earth. After all of this pain, all of this time I have finally found the one you have made for me You have divinely favored me to find true love here on Earth Only to tell me now I must leave? If heaven could only wait Long enough to have one last cry As I look into her eyes, as we say our last goodbyes Before you call me in the sky It’s hard to say such things as this When being with her and God means so much I would die to be with both of them From them, I would die for one last touch © August 2011 k.davis
