Verse
If heaven had a weekend
We’d all get to fish with our grandpa’s
Even though gods call him home
Eat Sunday supper with grandma
Even long after she’s gone
That once in a lifetimer bird dog
It wouldn’t be so hard to lose
If once every week they could just spread their wings
And come back for a day or two
Chorus
And there would be tears
But not near as many
And there’d still be time
To make us some memories
And sayin’ goodbye
Wouldn’t feel so much like they were leavin’
If heaven had a weekend
Verse
That clock on the wall wouldn’t scare me
Growin’ old wouldn’t be quite as bad
We wouldn’t be counting the moments
Til we’re losin’ our moms and our dads
And the friends that the good Lord takes way too soon
Wouldn’t be just be a name on a stone
And I’d have an ice cold beer waitin’
For the ones that didn’t make it back home
Chorus
There would be tears
But not near as many
And there’d still be time
To make us some memories
And sayin’ goodbye
Wouldn’t feel so much like they were leavin’
If heaven had a weekend
Bridge
A couple day get away
To come back and see all the ones that they left behind
Here on the other side
Chorus
And there would be tears
But not near as many
And there’d still be time
To make us some memories
And sayin’ goodbye
Wouldn’t feel so much like they were leavin’
There wouldn’t be years
That we take for granted
Wishin’ like hell for just one more minute
To look in your eyes
Lord just besides when we’re sleepin’
If heaven had a weekend
If heaven had a weekend
