Heaven Gained An Angel When I Lost You

Heaven Gained an Angel When I Lost You I remember as a child you were always there Just a phone call away Is what you used to say Your voice was always so calming to me I wish I could hear it now As my heart is breaking & Heaven Gained an Angel When I Lost You I remember when I would hear you were Coming I would count the days And then on the day you arrived I would ditch dad to go be with you I was a daddy’s girl yes But I was more of a Grandma’s girl for sure & Heaven Gained an Angel When I Lost You You knew how to lift me up When my spirits were down So many times you gave me A shoulder to cry on You could make me smile even When all I could find was a frown & Heaven Gained an Angel When I Lost You So many times in life when I have been At a crossroad and didn’t know What way to go All I had to do is think to myself What would Grandma say? And I always knew What to do & Heaven Gained an Angel When I Lost You I am going to miss the wisecracks You telling me what to do I am going to miss Your wisdom you so readily shared with me I will always miss the talks we had Most of all I will always miss You & Heaven Gained an Angel When I Lost You So many times you made me laugh When I felt like I was going to cry You were the mom I never really had A Grandma and a Friend I really wish time could stop for just a few Give me a chance to really say Good Bye to you & Heaven Gained an Angel When I Lost You I know you are watching down on me I know your love will always be there I even know you will always be a part of me However right now In this moment my heart is still broken It feels as though someone punched me in the gut I can’t even catch my breath I know it will take time And it has only been a few days & Heaven Gained an Angel When I Lost You I know my life will go on I know you would want it that way However it will never be the same I don’t know if I will ever get used to Not being able to just pick up the phone Whenever I think of you Or need someone to talk to I have a long road ahead of me I wish you were here to walk with me But I know you will be watching over me So here is to you All the love we shared And all the love we will share Until we meet again Grandma I love you & Heaven Gained an Angel When I Lost You
