Guarding the Door To Heaven

Is that your voice
In the calm of the night
Is that your shadow
Casting out from the light
Is that your face
I see among the crowd
Can it be you
Or is my head still in a cloud

We don't understand
Why you had to go
It's hard to accept
What we'll never know
The pain, the tears
It doesn't seem fair
A higher purpose
Must have called you up there

Is this for real
Can this be true?
Too many questions
The answers seem few
Can we see you
One more time
Just for a moment
It would be so sublime
Sublime

If you're not here
Then you're watching on high
A shining star
That dots the midnight sky
If you're not here
I bet you're guarding the door to heaven
With love in your heart
And no fear as you rise
Chasing out demons
With fire in your eyes
If you're not here
I bet you're guarding the door to heaven

We'll never forget
The sacrifice you made
Never forget
The call you obeyed
Facing battles
With courage to spare
Duty and honor
And devotion so rare

Is this for real
Can this be true?
Too many questions
The answers seem few
Fallen warrior
You've gone away
Fallen warrior
We'll see you someday
Someday

If you're not here
Then you're watching on high
A shining star
That dots the midnight sky
If you're not here
I bet you're guarding the door to heaven
With love in your heart
And no fear as you rise
Chasing out demons
With fire in your eyes
If you're not here
You're guarding the door to heaven
You're not here
You're guarding the door to heaven
With fire in your eyes
You're guarding the door to heaven
Daddy's not home
He's guarding the door to heaven
To heaven
To heaven
