Online Verhalen

I would go to heaven and back,
To be with you just once more
That's what he said
The day that his mother died.
You'll be right here in my heart
Until the end of time
That's what he promised
The day that his mother died.

His mother laughed softly and told him,
While the tears ran down her cheeks
There’s no easy way to heaven
It’s not like a staircase or a mountain you can climb
You’ll have to learn to live your life without me,
Then you’ll be oke, believe me you’ll be just fine.

He told his mother not to worry
That somehow he would find a way
And as he promised he would find her
His mother blew her final breath away

And since that day he searched for her
for a way to heaven and back
He climbed every mountain
And he crossed every river
Every ocean every sea

He wished up on every shooting star
That he would be reunited with his mom
That she would find her way back to him
Or that he would find a way back to her

That’s what he did every single day
Of every single month of every single year
Until finally he came to believe
That maybe his mother was right
There was no easy way to heaven
Maybe not a single way at all

And as he realized that it was possible
That he would never ever find a way
A way to heaven and back
He remembered the last words
His mother said

He should’ve learned to live his life without her,
But that was something he never did
And as he broke down in tears
He finally knew his mother was never coming back.

He saw the entire world
But had is eyes closed
For all the beautiful things around him
He saw every mountain
Every ocean every country
Without really seeing anything at all.
The only thing he looked for
Was a way to his mom
A way to heaven and back

And since that day he stopped searching
He started living his life again
And sometimes it felt like the hardest thing to do
But then one night when he was fast a sleep
Something happened in his dreams

He went to a beautiful garden
Way up in the clouds
With a million white flowers
And in the middle of the garden
Was his mother waiting just for him

I walked a thousand miles
To be with you just once more
I tried so hard but I couldn’t find you
That's what he said
The day that he saw his mother again

I think you tried to hard my son
That’s why you didn’t know where to look
I’ve been right here waiting for you
Right here in your heart
That’s where I’ve always been
And that’s where I’ll always be
Just think of me whenever you dream
Because that’s your way to heaven
Your way to heaven and back.

But you said there was no easy way
He responded all confused
Was it easy to find me here?
Was what she asked with a smile
You can only dream your way to heaven
The moment you learn to move on
Otherwise you’d be stuck here forever

But I don’t mind being here forever
If forever means I’ll be with you
And then he started crying
Because he realized his words
Weren’t entirely true

There is too much to see in this world
Too much to do and not enough time
That’s why you can’t stay here forever
And I can see that you see that now
That’s what I mean, you’ve learned to let go
That’s why you can come here to meet me
Why you can come to heaven and back

With a final hug goodbye
He woke up from this dream
He lived his life full of adventures
He made sure he saw everything
He believed he needed to see

But whenever he felt lonely
When he felt scared or insecure
He dreamed is way to heaven
His way to heaven and back

Sometimes in our lives we will lose people
We think we can’t live without
But we have to remember
That when we move on
It doesn’t mean we leave these people behind
They’ll always be right beside us
They’ll live in our heart forever
And when we truly believe this
We will always have a way to heaven
A way to heaven and back
