Story Behind the Song
As I was writing this song, I was thinking back to the times when we lost two children by miscarriage. Letting them go was painfully hard, but it is comforting to know that they are enjoying the full splendor of heaven and that one day, so will we...
Lyrics
As I feel these tears roll down my face
I’m thinking about a better time a much better place
When you were mine, you were mine
I can’t pretend it doesn’t hurt right now
It hurts so bad I want to scream to let it out
Especially when I think how lonely it will be without you
I know it would really help me if you could tell me
What’s it like walking on a cloud
Skipping down the streets of gold
Singing, playing, laughing out loud
While Peter tells you to hold it down
What’s it like partying with Paul
Matthew, Mark and Luke and John and Josh and Jo and Mo
By now I guess you’ve met them all
Would you tell the Lord I love Him, too
Back to this painful reality
The knife blade in my heart every time I think about
What used to be, what used to be
I know it would really help me if you could tell me
What’s it like walking on a cloud
Skipping down the streets of gold
Singing, playing, laughing out loud
While Peter tells you to hold it down
What’s it like partying with Paul
Matthew, Mark and Luke and John and Josh and Joe and Mo
By now I guess you’ve met them all
Would you tell the Lord I love Him, too
Would you tell Him that I’ll be there soon
Then we’ll be walking on a cloud
Skipping down the streets of gold
Singing, playing, laughing out loud
While Peter tells us to hold it down
Then we’ll be partying with Paul
Matthew, Mark and Luke and John and Josh and Joe and Mo
I just can’t wait to meet them all
Then I’ll tell the Lord I love Him, too
Until then I’ll have to dream of you
I’ll be dreaming about you
