lyrics

I might not be right beside you
but hey, I can build a paper plane and fly to
wherever you went when the wind blew,
wherever your flame still flickers through.

I’m with you always.
You’re part of me for Heaven’s sake.
Heaven is a place,
where I’m with you always.

Though, it’s not the same as face to face,
that’s okay,
okay.

I know we are from the same star.
Our souls danced to the rhythm of one mutual heart.
It doesn’t matter to me how far apart we are.
All that matters to me is that I was lucky to know you at all.

I’m with you always.
You’re part of me for Heaven’s sake.
Heaven is a place,
where I’m with you always.

Though, it’s not the same as face to face,
that’s okay,
okay.
I hope you’re okay.
I need you to know
you can’t be replaced.

I’m with you always.
You’re part of me for Heaven’s sake.
Heaven is a place,
where I’m with you always.
