I wish that Heaven had visiting hours So I could just show up and bring the news
That she's getting older and I wish that you'd met her
The things that she'll learn from me, I got them all from you
* I just stay a while and we'll put all the world to rights?
The little ones will grow and I'll still drink your favourite wine
And soon, they're going to close, but I'll see you another day
So much has changed since you've been away
Well, I wish that Heaven had visiting hours So I could just swing by and ask your advice
What would you do in my situation? I haven't a clue how I'd even raise them
What would you do? 'Cause you always do what's right
** Can we just talk a while until my worries disappear?
I'd tell you that I'm scared of turning out a failure
He'd say, "Remember that the answer's in the love that we create"
So much has changed since you've been away
I wish that Heaven had visiting hours And I would ask them if i could take you home
But I know what they'd say, that it's for the best
So I would live life the way you told me And make it on my own
