What have you been up to since I saw you last?
I know it's been a while now, time moves so fast
Do you still go fishing every chance you get?
Do you still hate the yankees? still root for the mets?
Heaven knows the reasons why you had to go away
And heaven knows I never dreamed I'd have to face that day
And since we're worlds apart
I'm left to wonder how you are
As you walk that higher road
I wish I knew what heaven knows
Do you hear my prayers when I hit my knee?
Do the angels help you fly, or did they give you wings?
When you saw jesus, did he know your name?
Throw his arms around you like he was glad you came
Heaven knows the reasons why you had to go away
And heaven knows I never dreamed I'd have to face that day
And since we're worlds apart
I'm left to wonder how you are
As you walk that higher road
I wish I knew what heaven knows
Do you have a face I'd recognize?
Does the world look small from way up high?
Heaven knows the reasons why you had to go away
And heaven knows I never dreamed I'd have to face that day
And since we're worlds apart
I'm left to wonder how you are
As you walk that higher road
I wish I knew what heaven knows
