What’s it like to be in heaven?
Is it more beautiful
Than what was written
In scrolls found from long ago?
I can only imagine what you see.
Hey there, Delilah
What’s it like to be in His presence
And become His Man’s best friend?
God, we miss her so…
Please hold her close.
Oh, what you did to me…
Oh what you did for me…
When I was alone,
You were there for me.
Oh what you did for me…
What you meant to me…
For a sum of years,
You brought joy to my life,
Now I must say goodbye.
I miss how you curled up in my arms,
Always stood by my side,
Barked with excitement at my sight.
I wish the earth wasn’t so cruel
But I won’t play the fool:
I know you are without pain
And this ain’t the end.
So, I wish you well, my friend.
As you run, please tell
Our loved ones, “Hello”,
From us.
Oh, what you did to me…
What you meant to me…
Oh, The tears I weep!
The pain
I can’t deny
What you will always mean
My dear, Lila.
