"Heaven Just Became an Even Better Place"
(Rock/Pop with Irish Fiddle, Tin Whistle)
For Claire
I’ll keep my head up high
And try not to cry
Make the best of each day, you would want it to be that way
With your smile so bright
You lit up everyone’s life
Just seeing you made me always have a better day
I’m writing you this song
Because we got along
And I want to say thanks for giving so much to me
I’ll think of you
With everything I do
Inspiring me to always do my best to be more like you
I’ll keep my head up high
And try not to cry
Make the best of each day, you would want it to be that way
With your smile so bright
You lit up everyone’s life
Just seeing you made me always have a better day
Someday friend we’ll embrace again
But goodbye until someday
One day friend we’ll meet again
But I’ll get by until that day, knowing that
Heaven just became an even better place
Heaven got an angel today
You make heaven such an even better place
You didn’t even have to try
Just by being you you’d ease my mind
And lift me up with your own special way
So now you have to go
But I’ll carry on because I know
Knowing you is a gift I’ll have every day no one can take away
I’ll keep my head up high
And try not to cry
Make the best of each day, you would want it to be that way
With your smile so bright
You lit up everyone’s life
Just seeing you made me always have a better day
Someday friend we’ll embrace again
But goodbye until someday
One day friend we’ll meet again
But I’ll get by until that day, knowing that
Heaven just became an even better place
Heaven got an angel today
You make heaven such an even better place
When I need a hug so tight
I’ll think of you and I’ll be alright
I’ll keep my head up high
And try not to cry
Make the best of each day, you would want it to be that way
With your smile so bright
You lit up everyone’s life
Just seeing you made me always have a better day
Someday friend we’ll embrace again
But goodbye until someday
One day friend we’ll meet again
But I’ll get by until that day, knowing that
Heaven just became an even better place
Heaven got an angel today
You make heaven such an even better place
You make heaven such an even better place
