how do I tell my baby Mama's not coming home
how do I tell myself I'll be staying alone
oh I can't stop crying
she says Daddy, I want to hold her, want to see her again
want to kiss her, want to touch her, oh what can I say
so do I
oh Mama, I'm missing you real bad
but it don't do me no good sitting thinking about what we had
love don't stop, it goes on forever
love don't stop, and it never will
love don't stop, one day we'll be together
love don't stop, and I'll sing this song to you one day
on heaven's highest hill

how am I gonna look into those big brown eyes
when they wake up crying out in the middle of the night
for Mama
how will I make it better
the house is full of people but nobody's home
everybody's here and I'm all alone
calling out your name, but there's no answer

oh Mama, last night she told me not to cry
I swear I see you every time she smiles
love don't stop, it goes on forever
love don't stop, and it never will
love don't stop, one day we'll be together
love don't stop, and I'll sing this song to you one day
on heaven's highest hill

I don't know if you hear me, sometimes I like to think you do
all the things we've been fighting for
I'm gonna make them all come true
and these arms they ache to hold you
and I know one day I will
I'll meet you in the tall grass
up on heaven's highest...

love don't stop, it goes on forever
love don't stop, and it never will
love don't stop, one day we'll be together
love don't stop, and I'll sing this song to you one day
on heaven's highest hill

one day we'll be together
on heaven's highest hill
our love goes on forever
and it always will
