Lyrics
I placed a rose on mamma's coffin and said my last goodbye
I tried to stay strong in front of the kids and hide the tears in my eyes
Then my little girl came over and said Daddy I know you're sad
But Grandma always told me you were the best son she could ever have
Well thats when I broke down and cried and fell down to my knees
But I knew in my heart Mamma was there with Jesus to comfort me
Chorus: There are no tears past the gate
We just have to believe
I know its sad when loved ones go
And we all have to grieve
But remember when we die our life doesn't end
We enter paradise and living just begins
I closed my eyes and tried to imagine what it's like up there
I thought back to when my Grandpa died and Mamma whispered in my ear
Don't worry son he'll be just fine, up there it never rains
There will be someone to dry your eyes and take away all the pain
I don't know when I'm going, but it sure took my breathe away
Then it finally hit me what my mamma had been trying to say
Chorus: There are no tears past the gate
We just have to believe
I know its sad when loved ones go
And we all have to grieve
But remember when we die our life doesn't end
We enter paradise and living just begins
Bridge: Mamma I'm gonna miss you but you'll always be with me
Tell Grandma and Grandpa hi and I'm blessed with my family
Chorus: There are no tears past the gate
We just have to believe
I know its sad when loved ones go
And we all have to grieve
But remember when we die our life doesn't end
We enter paradise and living just begins
We enter paradise and living just begins
