Mother's Mourning Ministry - One Sweet Day ~Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men

When I Lost You

I wish I could see you one more time

come walking through the door

But I know that is impossible

I will hear your voice no more.

I know you can feel my tears

and you don't want me to cry,

Yet my heart is broken 

because I can't understand

why someone so precious had to die.

I pray that God will give me strength

and somehow get me through

As I struggle with this heartache

that came when I lost you.

One Sweet Day

~Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men 

Sorry, I never told you, all I wanted to say.

Now it's too late to hold you

'Cause you've flown away, so far away.

Never, had I imagined, yeah, living without your smile.

Feelin' and knowing you hear me,

It keeps me alive. Alive!

And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven,

Like so many friends we've lost along the way,

And I know eventually we'll be together (together)

One Sweet Day.

(Picture a little scene from Heaven)

Darling, I never showed you, (I never showed you)

Assumed you'd always be there (always be there) (I thought you'd always be there.)

I took your presence for granted. (… for granted)

But I always cared (But I always cared)

And I miss the love we shared.

And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven.

Like so many friends we've lost along the way (along the way)

And I know eventually we'll be together (I know I know) (We'll be together)

One Sweet Day.

(Picture a little scene from Heaven) (Oh, oh)

Although, the sun will never shine the same, 

I'll always look to a brighter day (Yeah, yeah)

Yeah, Lord, I know, when I lay me down to sleep,

You will always listen, as I pray!

And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven,

Like so many friends we've lost along the way, (Like so many)

And I know eventually we'll be together (together, Yeah)

One Sweet Day.

And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven, (I'll see you eventually)

Like so many friends we've lost along the way,

And I know eventually we'll be together (together, Yes we will…)

One Sweet Day (One Sweet Day)

Sorry, I Never told you (Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo), all I wanted to say...
