Which Way to Heaven
By Joeysguy

My wife accepted the little that we had
Even those times that were really bad

She raised our kids, cats, dogs and also me
So as my hero it’s my wife I see

She would do things that made her strain
But she kept quiet about some of her pain

We were together for many years
Now alone I try to hold back the tears

Some days are harder to move on
So much is missing, so much is gone

With love for my wife I would always stare
Now it’s only pictures that I have here

I find myself rubbing some pictures with my hand
Wishing, just wishing to feel her hand

Thinking about the rest of my life
Which way to heaven and my wife

I wish I could hear my wife say
I’m here, take my hand heaven is this way
