I wish that heaven had visiting hours
So I could just show up and bring good news
That she's getting older and I wish that you'd met her
The things that she'll learn from me, I got them all from you
I wish that heaven had visiting hours
So I could just show up and bring good news
That she's getting older and I wish that you'd met her
The things that she'll learn from me, I got them all from you
[Chorus]
Can I just stay a while and we'll put all the world to rights?
The little ones will grow and I'll still drink your favourite wine
And soon, they're going to close, but I'll see you another day
So much has changed since you've been away
[Verse 2]
Well, I wish that heaven had visiting hours
So I could just swing by and ask your advice
What would you do in my situation?
I haven't a clue how I'd even raise them
What would you do? 'Cause you always do what's right
[Chorus]
Can we just talk a while until my worries disappear?
I'd tell you that I'm scared of turning out a failure
You'd say, "Remember that the answer's in the love that we create"
So much has changed since you've been away
[Verse 3]
I wish that heaven had visiting hours
And I would ask them if I could take you home
But I know what they'd say, that it's for the best
So I would live life the way you taught me
And make it on my own
[Chorus]
And I will close the door, but I will open up my heart
And everyone I love will know exactly who you are
Cause this is not goodbye, it is just 'til we meet again
So much has changed since you've been away
Ndikulakalaka kumwamba kukacheza maola
Chifukwa chake ndimatha kungowonetsa uthenga wabwino
Kuti akukalamba ndipo ndikulakalaka mutakumana naye
Zinthu zomwe aziphunzira kwa ine, ndinapeza onse kuchokera kwa inu
[KOLOS]
Kodi ndingakhale kanthawi ndipo tidzayika dziko lonse lapansi kukhala ufulu?
Aang'ono amakula ndipo ndidzamwetsa vinyo womwe mumakonda
Ndipo posachedwa, ayandikira, koma ndidzakuonani tsiku lina
Zochuluka kwambiri zasintha kuyambira pomwe mudachokapo
[Vesi 2]
Ndikulakalaka kumwamba kukacheza maola
Chifukwa chake ndimatha kungopusitsa ndikufunsa uphungu wanu
Kodi mungatani pamenepa?
Ndilibe chidziwitso chomwe ndingawalere
Mukadatani? Chifukwa nthawi zonse mumachita zabwino
[KOLOS]
Kodi tingangolankhula kwakanthawi mpaka nkhawa zanga zikatha?
Ndikukuuzani kuti ndikuwopa kuti ndipewe kulephera
Munganene, "Kumbukirani kuti yankho lili pachikondi chomwe timapanga"
Zochuluka kwambiri zasintha kuyambira pomwe mudachokapo
[Vesi 3]
Ndikulakalaka kumwamba kukacheza maola
Ndipo ndimawafunsa ngati ndingakutengereni
Koma ndikudziwa zomwe anganene, kuti ndizabwino kwambiri
Chifukwa chake ndikadakhala moyo momwe mudandiphunzitsira
Ndikupangitsa kukhala ndekha
[KOLOS]
Ndipo ndidzatseka chitseko, koma ndidzatsegula mtima wanga
Ndipo aliyense amene ndimamukonda adzadziwa kuti ndiwe ndani
Chifukwa izi sizabwino, ndi 'Til timakumananso
Zochuluka kwambiri zasintha kuyambira pomwe mudachokapo
