I’m On My Way To You
Written By: Jim Gaffney
Verse 1
I see your face in the morning light
Your laughter echoes through the night
Empty arms reach where you should be
But Heaven holds you close for me
Every prayer I whisper through the pain
Reminds me love will not be in vain
Though this road is long, I’ll see it through
Each step I take is leading to you
The tears I cry, they guide my way
Toward that bright and endless day
Chorus
Gone too soon oh son of mine, I couldn’t bear the cost
I think about the life we shared and the time that we both lost
There’s nothin’ I wouldn’t give to have you back hear in my arms
To tassel your hair and see those handsome eyes twinkle once again
This road’s been longer without you hear, I can’t deny it’s true
But every step brings me closer to the day I’ll be with you
I pray to God with all my heart that he’ll reunite us soon
‘Til that day my love will endure ‘cause I’m on my way to you
Yeah I’m on my way to youuuuuuuuuuuu
Verse 2
The years roll on but I still feel
Your tiny hand, that touch so real
I keep your memory safe inside
A mother’s love can’t be denied
When sorrow weighs and nights grow cold
I cling to faith, I still hold
One sweet promise that carries me through
The day I’m finally home with you
No goodbye lasts forever, it’s true
I’m on my way, my son, to you
Chorus
Gone too soon oh son of mine, I couldn’t bear the cost
I think about the life we shared and the time that we both lost
There’s nothin’ I wouldn’t give to have you back hear in my arms
To tassel your hair and see those handsome eyes twinkle once again
This road’s been longer without you hear, I can’t deny it’s true
But every step brings me closer to the day I’ll be with you
I pray to God with all my heart that he’ll reunite us soon
‘Til that day my love will endure ‘cause I’m on my way to you
Yeah I’m on my way to youuuuuuuuuuuu
Bridge
I’ve walked through nights where the shadows stayed
Carried by prayers that my soul has prayed
Your name’s a song the angels sing
A mother’s love beyond everything
The distance fades when I close my eyes
I see you waiting beyond the skies
No broken hearts, no tears remain
Just open arms where we meet again
The stars all whisper, “It won’t be long”
Their light reminds me where I belong
Each step I take, I’m closer too
Heaven’s path will guide me to you
Outro
The journey’s end is almost near
I feel your presence, warm and clear
No more waiting, no more pain
In your arms I’ll live again
My soul is free, the skies turn blue
Forever home
I’m on my way to youuuuuuuuuuuu
