Breakfast Table
Heavenly Conversations: A Song of Longing and Love
Lyrics
Was it a million miles to heaven
Reflecting on the distance, whether physical or metaphorical, to reach a heavenly place.
Too far to hear my lonely song
Expressing uncertainty if the singer's heartfelt song can reach heaven.
Or is it just my imagination I hear you humming along
Wondering if the perception of hearing the loved one humming is real or just imagination.
I only hold you in my dreams now
Acknowledging that the loved one is only present in dreams, not in reality.
I wake up with cold and empty arms
Waking up to the emptiness of not having the loved one beside, emphasizing the sense of loss.
Lord help me get through this long night without you
Seeking divine assistance to endure the long night without the loved one.
And soon as the morning comes
Anticipation for a new day, expressing hope that morning brings solace and relief.
Soon as the morning comes
-Save me a seat at the breakfast table
Yearning for a future reunion, imagining a celestial setting where they can be together again.
Save me a dance around the Milky Way
-And save me a thousand years to whisper in your ears
-All I've wanted to say
-Save me a smile and an angel's feather
-Save me a walk down the streets of gold
-And baby, we'll change our minds just like old times
-And maybe we'll just fly away
-Or maybe we'll stay
Contemplating whether they will choose to stay in the celestial realm or return.
My lucky doll, you're in heaven before me
Addressing the departed loved one, recalling shared moments of happiness and anticipation of heavenly joy.
You were my taste of heaven here
-Remember we loved to talk about it, we couldn't wait to get there
-So you go on and find your way around now
Encouraging the loved one to explore their new surroundings while acknowledging the longing on the singer's part.
But remember I'm here missing you
Expressing the ongoing sense of missing the departed loved one.
Do me a favor and say hey to Jesus
Requesting the departed to convey greetings to Jesus, emphasizing the shared feelings of missing.
And tell him I'm missing him too
-Tell him I'm missing him too
Reiterating the sentiment of missing Jesus and the connection between the singer and the departed.
Then save me a seat at the breakfast table
Repeating the earlier plea to save a place in the afterlife, expressing a desire for reunion and shared experiences.
Save me a dance around the Milky Way
-And save me a thousand years to whisper in your ears
-All I've wanted to say
-Save me a smile and an angel's feather
-Save me a walk down the streets of gold
-And baby, we'll change our minds just like old times
-And maybe we'll just fly away
-Or maybe we'll stay
Contemplating whether the future involves staying in the celestial realm or returning.
