Lyrics

Papa, I'm here
Momma, don't cry
I give so much to show you that I'm standing by

Searching your hearts you'll feel my love


I keep a careful watch on you both from above
And it's my hope that you will see
I'm happy now that I am free
I'm in the place where love begins
Far from your land of grief and sin

Papa will know Momma will too
It's just a separation 'till I'll be with you

I see it all as just a play
Gone in a flash like yesterday.

It's just your love, my love, our love that lasts and will never fade away
