Lyrics

Says She?s Never Been to Heaven (But You?d Think She Had)
Dave McDonald

Verse I

Her shoulder?s they get soaking wet from people crying on ?em,
Gives everyone she meets a hug just like she?s always known em?
She?s the only one to help a stranger stranded by the road,
And when a friend?s had way too much to drink,
She?s the one who takes them home,

I smile and tell her one day she?s gonna get herself in trouble,
Says what?s the point of living if we can?t help one another,

Chorus

She says she?s never been to heaven,
But you?d think she had,
I keep looking for a halo,
Just above her head,
Like she?s been up there dancing,
Where Angel?s tread,
Says she?s never been to heaven,
But you?d think she had.

Verse II

She plays nursemaid to stray cats and dogs that show up down at our house,
And she?s always got a dollar for some sad soul with his hand out,
She goes down to the nursing home just to sit around and talk,
And spend time with the people everybody else forgot.

She humbles me with thoughtful acts of one kind or another,
Like everyone?s her family, her sisters and her brothers,

Chorus

She says she?s never been to heaven,
But you?d think she had,
I keep looking for a halo,
Just above her head,
Like she?s been up there dancing,
Where Angel?s tread,
Says she?s never been to heaven,
But you?d think she had.

Bridge

She?s always saved me from myself,
Made me seem better than I am,
Something divine sent me her love,
Her love.

Chorus

She says she?s never been to heaven,
But I think she has,
I keep looking for a halo,
Just above her head,
Like she?s been up there dancing,
Where Angel?s tread,
Says she?s never been to heaven,
But I think she has
I think she has.
