Two Daughters and a Beautiful Wife Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When he reached the gates of heaven
He didn't understand
He knew that friends were coming over
Or was it all a dream?
Was it all a crazy dream?
[Verse 2]
He saw them playing there before him
What were they doing there?
It felt like home, it must be alright
Or was it all a dream?
Was it all a crazy dream?
[Verse 3]
Memories replay before him
All the tiny moments of his life
Lying 'round in bed on a Saturday morning
Two daughters and a wife
Two daughters and a beautiful wife
[Verse 4]
Meanwhile on Earth his friends come over
Shocked and horrified
Dolls and flowers by the storefront
And everybody cried
Everybody cried and cried
[Verse 5]
Is there vengeance up in heaven?
Or are those things left behind?
Maybe every day is Saturday morning
Two daughters and a wife
Two daughters and a beautiful wife
Two daughters and a beautiful wife
