I wish that heaven
Had visiting hours
So I could just show up
And bring the 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'd 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
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
Can we just talk a while
Until my worries disappear?
I'd tell you that I'm scared
Of turning out a failure
He'd say: Remember that the answer
Is in the love that we create
So much has changed
Since you've been away
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
And I will close the door
And I will open up my heart
And everyone I love
Will know exactly who you are
'Cause this is not goodbye
It is just till we meet again
So much has changed
Since you've been away
