Ahhh the good ol' days.

 

The Hands That Hold You Now

Scars In Heaven

If I'd only known

the last time would be

the last time

I would have put off

all the things I had to do.

I would have stayed a little longer

held on a little tighter,

now what I'd give for 

one more day with you.

Cause there's a wound here 

in my heart where

something's missing,

and they tell me it's going 

to heal with time.

But I know you're in a place

where all your wounds

have been erased

and knowing yours are healed

is healing mine.

Chorus:

The only scars in heaven

They won't belong to me and you.

They'll be no such thing as broken,

and all the old will be made new.

And the thought that makes me

smile now even as the tears fall down.

Is that the only scars in heaven

are on the hands that hold you now.

I know the road you walked was anything but easy

You picked up your share of

scars along the way.

Oh, but now you're standing in the sun

You fought your fight

and your race is run,

the pain is all a million miles away.

The only scars in heaven

They won't belong to me and you.

They'll be no such thing as broken,

and all the old will be made new.

And the thought that makes me 

smile now, even as the tears fall down.

Is that the only scars in Heaven

are on the hands that hold you now.

Hallelujah

For the hands that hold you now.

There's not a day that goes by

that I don't see you.

You live on in all the 

better parts of me.

Until I'm standing with you

in the sun

I'll fight this fight,

and this race I'll run,

Until I see what you can see.

The only scars in Heaven

they won't belong to me and you.

They'll be no such thing as broken,

and all the old will be made new.

And the thought that makes me 

smile now, even as the tears fall down.

Is that the only scars in Heaven

are on the hands that 

hold you now.

When you lose someone that holds 

meaning in your life, you hold onto

the pieces of them that you still

possess.

I have a handful of voice mail

messages that were on my

phone. I listen to them

when I need to be reminded

that there was still love there.

Because he always ended each 

call with 

"I still love you".

I know I took it 

for granted,

as we all do,

in so many things,

that we believe will

be here day to day.

But, now those words

 mean so very much 

to me.

I was struck,

 at the end of the 

last message I have the 

phone recording ends by saying:

END OF FINAL MESSAGES.

*

*

The irony of that can't be

made more clear.

Because they truly are my

final messages.

*

Happy Birthday Wally.

You can't be here,

and I certainly can't be there,

but I still remember,

and I always will.

A Thousand moments I took for granted.

Mostly,

because I assumed there would be

a thousand more.
