Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
And now it's too late to hold you
'Cause you've flown away, so far away
[Verse 2]
Never had I imagined
Living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive, alive
[Chorus]
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day (Oh, and I'll wait patiently to see you in Heaven)
[Verse 3]
Darling, I never showed you (I never showed you)
Assumed you'd always be there (I thought you'd always be there)
I, I took your presence for granted
But I always cared and I miss the love we shared
[Chorus]
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day (And all that I know is I'll wait patiently to see you in Heaven)
[Bridge]
Although the sun will never shine the same
I'll always look to a brighter day
Yeah, Lord, I know when I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen as I pray
[Chorus]
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
[Chorus]
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day
[Outro]
Sorry, I never told you
All I wanted to say
