I know you saw me crying, as I sat quietly alone.
Sometimes the world just gets too hard, to face it on my own.
And I know that you’re there with me, in times when I am sad,
You’re the one that I could count on. My dearest , dearest , Dad.
Though I still hear your gentle voice and I still see your loving smile.
I’d give all to have one moment, where I could sit with you a while.
And I know you taught me to be strong, when I must stand alone.
But no one knows the joy I’d feel, If only Heaven had a phone.
I stand up straight; I stand up tall, for all the world to see.
But they don’t know my secret, it’s because you stand with me.
So thank you dear, dear, father, I could not have done it on my own.
And I dream to tell this to your ears. If only Heaven had a phone.
I’ve seen the joys that life can bring and the saddest moments too.
They’re there when I reflect upon…… my memory of you.
Oh, I know you’re with our family, yes, I know you’re not alone.
But we on Earth could stop our tears, If only Heaven had a phone.
