Heaven Won't Wait

They say Heaven can wait,

I find this is not true.

When the Death Angel calls

then all bills become due.

-

Life is so short, and

so filled with pain,

now that you're gone

only memories remain.

-

Daddie, I love you,

I don't think that you knew,

I'd give all I own,

could I prove it to you.

-

When I think of all

of the wasted years,

the misunderstandings,

heartaches and tears,

-

not a day would elapse,

could I live life anew,

that I'd not let you know

how much I love you.

-

You tried to speak

on the day that you died,

I listened intently

as I stood by your side.

-

I couldn't make out

what you tried to say,

it bothers me still,

maybe I'll know some day.

-

When a loved one is gone

it then is too late,

to show them you care,

because Heaven won't wait.
