Waiting
(author unknown)

I got to the gate of Heaven yesterday
after we said good-bye

I began to miss you terribly,
because I heard you cry

Suddenly there was an Angel and she asked me
to enter Heaven's gate

I asked her if I could stay outside
for someone who'd be late

I wouldn't make much noise you see,
I wouldn't bark or howl

I'll only wait here patiently
and play with my tennis ball

The Angel said I could stay right here
and wait for you to come

Because Heaven just wouldn't be Heaven
if I went in alone

So I'll wait right here, you take your time,
but keep me in your heart

Because Heaven just wouldn't be Heaven
without you to warm my heart
