Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Why did she have to go?
So young, I just don't know why
Things happen half the time
Without reason, without rhyme
Lovely, sweet, young woman
Daughter, wife and mother
Makes no sense to me
I just have to believe she
[Verse 2]
Flew up to Heaven on the wings of angels
By the clouds and stars, and passed where no one sees
And she walks with Jesus and her loved ones waiting
And I know she's smilin', sayin', "Don't worry 'bout me"
[Verse 3]
Loved ones she left behind
Just tryin' to survive
And understand the why
Feelin' so lost inside
Anger shot straight at God
Then askin' for His love
Empty with disbelief
Just hopin' that maybe she
[Verse 4]
Flew up to Heaven on the wings of angels
By the clouds and stars, and passed where no one sees
And she walks with Jesus and her loved ones waiting
And I know she's smilin', sayin', "Don't worry 'bout me"
[Verse 5]
It's hard to say goodbye
Her picture in my mind
Will always be of times I'll cherish
And I won't cry 'cause she
[Verse 6]
Flew up to Heaven on the wings of angels
By the clouds and stars, and passed where no one sees
And she walks with Jesus and her loved ones waiting
And I know she's smilin', sayin', "Don't worry 'bout me"
[Verse 7]
Don't worry 'bout me
Don't worry 'bout me
