I wish that heaven had visiting hours
So I could just show up and bring good news
That she's getting older and I wish that you'd met her
The things that she'll learn from me, I got them all from you
I wish that heaven had visiting hours
So I could just show up and bring good news
That she's getting older and I wish that you'd met her
The things that she'll learn from me, I got them all from you
[Chorus]
Can I just stay a while and we'll put all the world to rights?
The little ones will grow and I'll still drink your favourite wine
And soon, they're going to close, but I'll see you another day
So much has changed since you've been away
[Verse 2]
Well, I wish that heaven had visiting hours
So I could just swing by and ask your advice
What would you do in my situation?
I haven't a clue how I'd even raise them
What would you do? 'Cause you always do what's right
[Chorus]
Can we just talk a while until my worries disappear?
I'd tell you that I'm scared of turning out a failure
You'd say, "Remember that the answer's in the love that we create"
So much has changed since you've been away
[Verse 3]
I wish that heaven had visiting hours
And I would ask them if I could take you home
But I know what they'd say, that it's for the best
So I would live life the way you taught me
And make it on my own
[Chorus]
And I will close the door, but I will open up my heart
And everyone I love will know exactly who you are
Cause this is not goodbye, it is just 'til we meet again
So much has changed since you've been away
Is mian liom go raibh uaireanta cuairte ag Heaven
Mar sin d'fhéadfainn ach dea-scéal a thaispeáint agus a thabhairt
Go bhfuil sí ag dul in aois agus is mian liom go mbuailfeá léi
Na rudaí a fhoghlaimeoidh sí uaim, fuair mé iad go léir uait
[Chorus]
An féidir liom fanacht ar feadh tamaill agus cuirfimid an domhan ar fad le cearta?
Fásfaidh na cinn bheaga agus go n-ólann mé an fíon is fearr leat go fóill
Agus go luath, tá siad ag dul a dhúnadh, ach feicfidh mé lá eile ort
Tá an oiread sin athraithe ó tharla go bhfuil tú ar shiúl
[Véarsa 2]
Bhuel, is mian liom go raibh uaireanta cuairte ag Heaven
Mar sin, d'fhéadfainn ach do chomhairle a lua agus a iarraidh
Cad a dhéanfá i mo chás?
Níl clue agam conas a thógfainn iad fiú iad
Cad a dhéanfá? 'A chur faoi deara go ndéanann tú i gcónaí an rud ceart
[Chorus]
An féidir linn labhairt le tamall go dtí go n-imíonn mo chuid imní?
Ba mhaith liom a rá leat go bhfuil eagla orm teip a fháil
Gur mhaith leat a rá, "Cuimhnigh go bhfuil an freagra sa ghrá a chruthaímid"
Tá an oiread sin athraithe ó tharla go bhfuil tú ar shiúl
[Véarsa 3]
Is mian liom go raibh uaireanta cuairte ag Heaven
Agus iarrfainn orthu iad dá bhféadfainn tú a thógáil abhaile
Ach tá a fhios agam cad a dúirt siad, go bhfuil sé don chuid is fearr
Mar sin, ba mhaith liom an saol a chaitheamh ar an mbealach a mhúin tú dom
Agus é a dhéanamh ar mo chuid féin
[Chorus]
Agus dúnfaidh mé an doras, ach osclóidh mé mo chroí
Agus beidh a fhios ag gach duine a bhfuil grá agam dó go díreach cé hiad féin
Ní beannacht é seo, tá sé díreach 'go mbuailimid le chéile arís
Tá an oiread sin athraithe ó tharla go bhfuil tú ar shiúl
