Words for the Journey

My baby lives in heaven,

But I feel him all aroundYour gentle touch, your soft embrace,You keep me safe and sound My baby lives in heaven,Among the stars that shineThe Angels will look after you,Until the day you're mine  My baby lives in heaven,Just beyond my furthest viewWith winged friends aplenty to play with,And mischief to get up to My baby lives in heaven,Where only laughter is allowedAnd stumbling your first steps are fun,When you land softly on a cloud My baby lives in heaven,Where you babble and gurgle and cooAnd by the time I will hold you again,You'll smile and say 'mama I love you' My baby lives in heaven, You were taken from us too soonBut I can always send my love,Tied on to a balloon My baby lives in heaven,And not down here with meBut I fear not because I know up there, You are loved, and safe, and free Amy Farquhar in memory of Alfie Farquhar
