~IF YOU CAME BACK FROM HEAVEN~

If you came back from heaven
So many things I would change
I would care less about how the house looks
Or how the furniture is arranged

I wouldn't worry about fingerprints
That you left on the wall
I'd throw a wobbly pitch to you
And again play the game of baseball

I'd find an old limber pole
And a very long piece of string
We'd make your fishing a lot more fun
And feel our hair blowing in the wind

I'd look at you from dawn till night
And brush your hair with my hand
And when you smiled that happy grin
I'd say, "You're my little man."

I'd tuck you in so gently
Again when bedtime came around
I'd tickle you and make you giggle
In case your face had a frown

I'd never let you out of my sight
Not for a minute of the day
I'd listen again very closely
To every word you had to say

I'd teach you deeper compassion
In a way I now know
That I didn't fully realize
Before God called you home

I'd make you say your prayers each night
And thank God for a second chance
And when you said, "My soul to keep"
My heart would sing and dance

If you came back from heaven
What a glory it would be
I'd tell the angels the next time they call
I hope you stay and they take me
