Holes in the Floor of Heaven, Steve Wariner

1998

One day shining eight years old
Grandma passed away
I was a broken hearted little boy
Blowing out that birthday cake

How I cried when the sky let go
With a cold and lonesome rain
Momma smiled said don't be sad child
Grandmas watching you today

cause there's holes in the floor of heaven
And her tears are pouring down
That's how you know shes watching
Wishing she could be here now
And sometimes if youe lonely
Just remember she can see
There's holes in the floor of heaven
And she's watching over you and me

Seasons come and seasons go
Nothing stays the same
I grew up fell in love
Met a girl who took my name

Year by year we made a life
In this sleepy little town
I thought wed grow old together
Lord I sure do miss her now

But there's holes in the floor of heaven
And her tears are pouring down
Thats how you know she's watching
Wishing she could be here now
And sometimes when I'm lonely
I remember she can see
There's holes in the floor of heaven
And she's watching over you and me

Well my little girl is 23
I walk her down the aisle
It's a shame her mom can't be here now
To see her lovely smile

They throw the rice
I catch her eye
As the rain starts comin down
She takes my hand says daddy don't be sad cause
I know momma's watching now

And there's holes in the floor of heaven
And her tears are pouring down
That's how you know shes watching
Wishing she could be here now
And sometimes when I'm lonely
I remember she can see
Theres holes in the floor of heaven
And she's watching over you and me

Watching over you and me
Watching over you and me
Watching over you and me
