A tear fell in Heaven,
Whenever you felt alone.
And for every tear you cried,
Another fell upon a throne.
Life wasn’t always kind,
In your pursuit of love.
And when you didn’t find it,
Another tear fell above.
Then you came into our lives,
And finally found your way.
We all fell in love with you,
You brought sunshine to our day.
You had such an innocence,
It was so much like a child.
You brought joy to our lives,
With the jolly way you smiled.
But your time with us was brief,
In a moment you were gone.
And it is a darker day
That greets us with the dawn.
For God has called you home,
Your labors here are through.
And someday we may learn,
To go on without you.
But we’ll miss you dear friend,
Your great girth and bouncy sway.
We will keep you in our hearts,
Till we meet again one day.
Now tears fall here on Earth,
For sorrow is our leaven.
But from now on, there will be
No more tears in Heaven.
