Happy In His Mansion

I see it’s raining in your heart
And your blue skies are full of shadows 
You keep reflecting on the past 
On days you can’t get back 
But let Me tell you what I know 

He’s happy in his new mansion 
It sits on acres of greener grass
There’s one tree for every mem’ry
And a blade for every laugh 

It’s foundation is the family
Pictures cover every wall
The floors are made of one way mirrors
So that he can see you all

Please don’t cry for his leaving 
He’s in a much better place
Every new day you’ll get closer
Just pack your suitcase full of faith

You’re still bonded by your love
It’s much stronger than any stone
He’s been smiling since the moment
The moment he was called back home

He’s happy in his new mansion 
It sits on acres of greener grass
There’s one tree for every mem’ry
And a blade for every laugh 

Yes there’s one tree for every mem’ry
And a blade of grass for every laugh
