	Written in 1984. This is the first love song I had ever written. I had fallen in love with a girl named, Laura Sering, who I eventually married in 1986. This song is about how I felt about her when she was in a relationship with someone else. This song made her fall in love with me. It was inspired by her saying something to me like," we will be together in heaven." It was one of those songs that was completely written in one night. Then I immediately made a recording of it. That recording is the exact same version that I play to this day. In 1987 Laura and I went our separate ways, and this song was literally retired for about 14 years. In July 1996 an old girlfriend from my youth was murdered in Kansas City, M.O. Her name was Lisa Reynolds. I was very close to her from the age of 12 to 15. She was the first girl I really used to sing to. She literally worshiped my talent and truly loved to hear me sing. I loved her dearly. We went our separate ways into high school. Then in 1987 I met up with her and we had a reunion type week together then we went our separate ways, again. I have written a couple of songs about her and even one of them was sent to her just a few months before her death. Her loss has had a strong effect on me. Then when I was rehearsing songs for my comeback in 2001, I decided to redo this song for her. At all of my performances, I personally dedicate this song to her. When I play or listen to this song, it now only relates to her. She was the first to really believe in me. And on the night of Oct. 27th, 2001, this live recording that is on my cd Acoustic Visions, was dedicated to her.

	Lyrics Some day she'll be all mine In the days of heaven Then she will be fine In the days of heaven And we all will be alright In the days of heaven I've tried so very hard To make my love relate But all I get is a broken heart And never a word to say And I believed that all along We were the perfect mates But all I got was a sad song That's making me want to pray And I don't have to try Because I realize That you and I Can see the path on to eternity And I won't cry Because I know inside That you and I will be together In the days of heaven I long for heaven I'll meet you in heaven You just said that you love me so But you love another instead And what am I going to do With the pain inside my head And how am I supposed to feel Knowing our love is dead And I don't have to try Because I felt the light The lights of love inside our minds When we, touched the other night And I won't cry Because I know inside That you and I will be together In the days of heaven We can build a heaven on earth If we really try So won't you hold me in your heart 'Till the day I die And I won't cry Because I know inside That you and I will be together In the days of heaven I long for heaven I'll meet you in heaven In memory of Lisa Rene' Reynolds
