Phil King - Halfway to Heaven: An Alzheimer's Song of Hope Lyrics

It's sort of a mystery
No one can explain
Why it can change you
In so many ways

Could be the answer
Is simple they say
You're on a journey
And well on your way

You're halfway to heaven
I want you to know
The angels are coming
To take you back home

You're halfway to heaven
The angels are near
You're halfway to heaven
My dear

You love hearing music
And sing right along
With words you create
To familiar songs

You see your reflection
In windows and mirrors
You smile and say hi
As though it can hear

You're halfway to heaven
I want you to know
The angels are coming
To take you back home

You're halfway to heaven
The angels are near
You're halfway to heaven
My dear

You were so good
So kind and so true
Harsh words and hard feelings
Were no part of you

Our life was a great one
Some ups and some downs
Our love is the sunshine
That makes us go round

You're halfway to heaven
I want you to know
The angels are coming
To take you back home

You're halfway to heaven
The angels are near
You're halfway to heaven
My dear

Though you don't answer
I know you're still here
Our names have all left you
Forever I fear

You're drifting away
Yet we persevere
Through every new challenge
The angels draw near

You're halfway to heaven
I want you to know
The angels are coming
To take you back home

You're halfway to heaven
The angels are near
You're halfway to heaven
My dear

Out of the haze
Every once in a while
The darkness gives way
To your shiny bright smile

When you get up there
Please send for me
So I will be with you
For eternity

You're halfway to heaven
I want you to know
The angels are coming
To take you back home

You're halfway to heaven
The angels are near
You're halfway to heaven
My dear

You're halfway to heaven
You just have to know
At the end of this journey
You will be back home

At the end of this journey
You will be back home
