One day shy of eight
years old
When 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
Mamma 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 you're lonely
Just
remember she can see
There's holes in the floor of
heaven andshe'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 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
They throw the
rice, 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 when you're lonely
Just
remember she can see
There's holes in the floor of
heaven and she's
Watching over you and
me
This page made out of love for
my grandmother, Rita.
