Heaven Got Another Angel

This post is very dear to me. We sung it at our dear nana's funeral service. She was truly an angel, and I am sure she went straight to  heaven.

This song was written by Gordon Garner and it is a song of heart-break and hope.

Heaven Got Another Angel

The roses aren't as pretty

The sun isn't quite as high

The birds don't sing as sweet of a lullaby

The stars are a little bit faded

The clouds are just a little more gray

And it feels like things won't ever be the same

Heaven got another angel the night, you left this world behind

Heaven got a little better the day, that it took you away from me

I'm missing you tonight

I'll see you again sometime

For now, I'll close my eyes

And dream of heaven tonight

The beaches aren't as lovely

The sky isn't quite as blue

Still, they're sweetened by the memory of you

The rain is a little bit colder

The fire is never quite as warm

Still, it seems that heaven isn't all that far

Heaven got another angel the night you left this world behind

Heaven got a little better the day that it took you away from me

I'm missing you tonight

I'll see you again sometime

For now, I'll close my eyes

And dream of heaven tonight

I'm spending a little more time now with the things that mean a little bit more

I'm noticing the wonders of this world

I love with a little more hope now

I live with a little more peace

Cause I understand how precious life can be

Heaven got another angel the night you left this world behind

Heaven got a little better the day that it took you away from me

I'm missing you tonight

I'll see you again sometime

For now, I'll close my eyes

And dream of heaven tonight
