Lyrics:

So many times he rehearsed the lines he would use to tell his little girl goodbye
He promised himself when he told her he'd be going to Heaven he wouldn't cry
So he held back the pain, as he pushed her swing, and he said "Heaven is a wonderful place"
But that dam of tears broke with the words that she spoke and the look on her innocent face
When she said, "Daddy are there swing sets in Heaven?"
And he said "Darling, we'll have to wait and see"
She said "Daddy, if there are swing sets in Heaven will you save a swing for me?"

She grew up so fast and so long has passed since the day her daddy said "Goodbye"
She promised herself when she paid him a visit today she wouldn't cry
So she held back the pain, stared down at his name, then she knelt and prayed there alone
She said "Amen" as she placed her hand on the swing set etched in the stone
And she said "Daddy, are there swing sets in Heaven?"
And he said "Darling, you'll have to wait and see"
She said "Daddy, if there are swing sets in Heaven will you save a swing for me?"

She said "Daddy, if there are swing sets in Heaven will you save a swing for me?"

  • Anybody who wants this song should talk to SongWriterDad1969 (see comment below). This song cannot be distributed in any other way. 

  • I can record this song and put it on a CD for anybody. Will only cost s and handling. That's how much this song means to me. I only need to know if I can. My recording will be of Roger only. IF anybody knows if I can legally do this, let me know and I will make the recordings along with one or two other songs of your choosing for free.

  • @sneakypete971 No, this is not legal. Anybody wanting to get this song must go through Songwriterdad1969. Sorry, but thanks for your offer.

  • does he have a cd with this song on it? just wondering.

  • He did, but I'm not sure it was ever officially released. I was able to borrow my Dad's.

  • Don't know him, but from what I understand, he couldn't get Nashville interested in his work - tough to believe with how many people are looking for this song.
