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
