Beloved

If heaven opened up its gates
 Just for one day, so I can see the face
 Of my beloved, the one who went away
 Oh, how I tell you that you're appreciated?
 My beloved, I hate that you're so far away,
 My beloved, so many things I wanna say.
 Ain't no love like your love,
 'Cause you died before I could say I love you, my beloved.
 They say the greatest love is in advance,
 And I knew you love me, though we never been off the road,
 I wonder what I'd do with had a change to take your place.
 How I wish I could hold you and tell you face to face.
 My beloved, I hate that you're so far away,
 My beloved, so many things I wanna say.
 Ain't no love like your love,
 'Cause you died before I could say I love you, my beloved.
