She's Watching Over Me
Today you were on my mind
But over the years I’ve come to find
No matter how much time passes by
Still there’s time I can’t help but cry
As I think about the angel watching over me
All the things I know you see
Just wish you were here for me to call
To lean on when I feel like I’m gonna fall
You were my rock and my best friend
And though you’re gone still that doesn’t have to end
It’s just not the same as it was before
A piece of my heart is still sore
As I find myself going thru those old pics of you
Still there’s nothing I wouldn’t give, nothing I wouldn’t do
To see you and talk to you just one more time
Even though after all these years I find
Within my heart you’re still alive
Without a doubt to this conclusion I did arrive
Wish you could meet this new man I’m with
Most people think it’s crazy, some kinda myth
But I know deep down in my heart
That you have seen it all from the start
And you’ve found your own way
To tell me just what you would say
I can’t even begin to tell you how much it means
To know you’re there thru all my routines
And how you find ways to whisper in my ear
To say just what you would if were here
I carry your love with me everywhere I go
People always tell me so
How much of you they see in me
With that I must agree
And I couldn’t be more proud
As I look up and the sun comes from behind a cloud
Or when a certain song plays
Throughout different times and different days
I know matter what deep down I know
No matter what you’re always with me
There for every journey, heartache, and new love
I know you’re watching over me from up above
So I just wrote this so you would know
Momma I love you and I miss you!!!
