Letra de If Heaven Wasn't So Far Away

Everyday I'd drive to work across Flint River bridge A hundred yards from the spot where me and grandpaw fished. There's a piece of his ol' fruit stand on the side of Sawmill Road He'd be there peelin' peaches if it was 20 years ago And what I wouldn't give To ride around in that old truck with him If Heaven wasn't so far away I'd pack up the kids and go for the day Introduce them to their grandpaw And watch them laugh at the way he talked Find my long lost cousin John The one we left back in Vietnam Show him a picture of his daughter now She's a doctor and he'd be proud Tell 'em we'd be back in a couple of days In the rear view mirror, we'd all watch 'em wave Yea, losin' them wouldn't be so hard to take If Heaven wasn't so far away. I'd hug all three of those girls we lost from the class of '99 And I'd find my bird dog Bo, And take him huntin' one more time Ask Hank why he took those pills back in '53 Ask Janice to sing the second verse of 'Me and Bobbie McGee' Sit on a cloud and visit for a while It'd do me good just to see them smile. If Heaven wasn't so far away I'd pack up the kids and go for the day Introduce them to their grandpaw And watch them laugh at the way he talked Find my long lost cousin John The one we left back in Vietnam Show him a picture of his daughter now She's a doctor and he'd be proud Tell 'em we'd be back in a couple of days In the rear view mirror, we'd all watch 'em wave Yea, losin' them wouldn't be so hard to take If Heaven wasn't so far If Heaven wasn't so far If Heaven wasn't so far away. So far away So far awaaaaaaaaaaay
