Holes in the floor of heaven lyrics

one day shy of eight years old, my grandma passed away

i was a broken hearted little boy, blowing out that birthday cake

how i cried when the sky let go, with a cold and lonesome rain,

mamma smiled, said don't be sad child, grandma's watching you today

(chorus)

cause theres holes in the floor of heaven

and her tears are pouring down,

that's how you know she's watching,

wishing she could be here now,

and sometimes if your lonely,

just remember she can see,

there's holes in the floor of heaven,

Und sie passt auf dich und mich auf

seasons come, and seasons go, nothing stays the same

i grew up, fell in love, met a girl who took my name

year by year, we made a life, in this sleepy little town

i thought we'd grow old together, Lord, i sure do miss her now

But there's holes in the floor of heaven,

that's how i know she's watching,

and sometimes when i'm lonely,

there's holes in the floor of heaven,

well my little girl is twenty three, I walk her down the aisle

it's a shame her mom can't be here now, to see her lovely smile

they throw the rice, i catch her eye, as the rain starts coming down

she takes my hand, says daddy don't be sad,

cause i know mamma's watching now

And there's holes in the floor of heaven,

that's how you know she's watching,

and sometimes when i'm lonely,

yes, there's holes in the floor of heaven,

watching over you and me
