Holes in the Floor of Heaven

One day child of 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
Mama smiled, said, "Don't be sad child, grandma's watching you today"

'Cause there's holes in the floor of heaven
And her tears are pouring down
That's how you know she's watching
Wishing she could be here now
And sometimes if your 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, and fell in love, met a girl who took my name
Year by year, we made a life in this sleepy little town
I thought we'd 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
That's how I 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
Through the ice, I catch her eye, as the rain starts coming down
She takes my hand, says, "Daddy don't be sad
'Cause I know mamma's watching now"

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

Watching over you and me
Watching over you and me
