I got to the gate of Heaven yesterday after we said goodbye.
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 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 So I'll wait;
you take your time, but keep me in your heart.
Because Heaven just wouldn't be Heaven without you to warm my heart.
