"Heaven Cries"
© 2002 Brian Eggertsen, All Rights Reserved

Intro...
You may be lost
But never forgotten,
Always in our hearts
Though taken so sudden...

Verse
They ran into the crub'ling buildings
While others were running out,
Courageous angels that's what the were
In a nations eyes, no doubt.
A fire Man's become a hero
To all children in New York City,
No more Batman or Superman
Firemen's what they wanna be.

Chorus
Heaven Cries tears of pearls.
With the nation in grieve,
While heartaches spread 'cross seas.
For shattered families,
Lost souls demanding peace.
Heaven Cries tears of pearls.

Verse 2
As the twins fell the skyline fell too
Leaving The big apple naked,
September 11th touch a country
But not enough to break it.
Folks found their long lost humanity
And began to help strangers,
One man is scared but people are strong
United we cleared the dangers.

Chorus.

Bridge
You will live on
In our memories,
Even though you're gone
You're love will always breathe...

You may be lost
But never forgotten,
Always in our hearts
Though taken so sudden...

Chorus

Add (Spoken)
I just want to take this time to say:
Let's all join hands and pray for those-
Who didn't make it through September 11th.
Let's also pray for those who stood-
Face to face with death, and survived.
To see heaven cry, and the sun rise over the USA...
May the sun always sine upon the good,
And may the force of good always win...Amen

The blue pages will fill
with tribute and pain
of those that we lost
and of those that remain...

well done, Brian...thank you...

The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind pretend I am weightless and in this moment I am happy
