Letter To Heaven - Dolly Parton

A very sad and touching song by the amazing Dolly Parton.

Enjoy it!

Lyrics:

Letter To Heaven

An old man was sitting at his table one day
Writing a letter to pass time away
His little granddaughter climbed up on his knee
Saying won't you please write a letter for me
Oh what must I say in this letter I pray
Tell mommy I miss her since she went away
I coming to see her real soon I hope
He choked back a big lump that rose in his throat

He sealed it and wrote on that big envelope
To God up in heaven you'll get it I hope
He stamped it and handed it to her to mail
Her big eyes were shining her little face pale

She was crossing the street to the box o'er the way
And when she stepped out never looked either way
A big auto hit her and sped away fast
The little girls prayers had been answered at last

The postman was passing and picked up the note
Addressed to the Master and these words he spoke
Straight up into heaven this letter did go
She's happy up there with her mommy I know

I don not own this song or anything.

[tammie1964]

I heard this song when I was 6 months pregnant with my 5th child, a daughter, and cried...to lose a child was just the unthinkable!!! Sadly, the unthinkable did happen 5 months later, when I woke to my daughter's cold, stiff body beside mine one cold winter's night...She had fallen into the sleep that never wakens...RIP my Baby Katelyn....Mama loves you...
