I Know You'Re Up There

I know you're up there somewhere Watching over me But I'd give anything If you were here for me to see I know this isn't possible And there's no way this could be But this aching in my heart Just gets the best of me Even though you aren't my daughter I love you just the same I felt the loss of a child too The day the angels came There are so many things Throughout each day That remind me of you A thought, a song, a memory Just to name a few I miss your smile, our little talks That twinkle in your eye The way you'd say "I love you too" Before you'd say good-bye Your bubbly disposition And the love for life you had Were taken from us way too soon This breaks my heart so bad Most days I'm really lost And don't know what to do Nothing is the same here without our little Boo Country Concert, Cumberland or shopping at the mall Christmas vacation in Florida Didn't we have a ball These are such wonderful memories Thank you for them all They decorate our home In pictures on the wall The things we've done the times we've shared Are so vivid in my mind And that's where they'll remaind Until the end of time There's a void in my heart Much bigger than the sky That seems to keep on growing As the days go by Some say time will ease the pain But I'm not sure it's true Each night I cry myself to sleep And wake up feeling blue I ask the lord for guidence To face another day And ease this aching in my heart And help me find my way I pray someday I'll understand Whay things like this take place But I'd give anything right now To see your smiling face
