Straight  my tears fell, like a sheet of glass

I saw the floor of heaven touch the earth
And I too was affected by its bliss
In the moments just before your death

Like a  heavy satin, gold embossed,
When  your soul went into Paradise
I saw the floor of heaven touch the earth

I saw no suffering Jesus on his Cross
Just a cloud of angels  gold and wise
In the moments just before your death

Straight  my tears fell, like a sheet of glass
As on your serene face I left a kiss
I saw the floors of heaven touch the earth

A sweet bell rang  and my dear man was lost
Nothing can prepare the heart for this
In the moments just after a death

Would we love if we knew the full cost?
He has left me here and I am lost
I saw the floor of heaven touch the earth
In the moments just  around his death
