You lay there fighting for each breath
While angels hovered 'round your bed
With open arms like God? s own smile
They led you to the lightWhat a battle you have won
And now your journey has begun
To the land where spirits fly
And your soul will never dieSo travel lightly in my heart
You and I will never part
And far beyond this world we see
There? s a place for you and meAnd I thank my lucky stars
We had a chance to heal our scars
Now I don? t have to hang my head
Over things I wish I? d said
So here am I your only son
I? m thinking back on work we? ve done
You were strong and I was young
Man we had our fightsAnd everything I felt for you
Has been turned to something new
And this is love I feel today
It will never go awaySo travel lightly in my heart
You and I will never part
Far beyond this world we see
There? s a place for you and meAnd I thank the moon and stars
We had a chance to heal our scars
Now I don? t have to hang my head
Over things I wish I? d said
I don? t have to hide my tears
I don? t have to drown my fears
And I don? t have to hang my head
Over things I wish I? d saidNo, I don? t have to live in dread
Over things I wish I? d said
