It didn't sink in right away, ma'am the plane went down
Our crews have searched the ground
With a picture of the ocean and the beach
And I'll call you tonight to let you know"
And the simple words he wrote her
He held her tight, said, "I'll be alright
No survivors found she heard him say
Wish you were near, wish I could touch your face
But somehow she got a postcard in the mail that just said Heaven
The weather's nice, it's paradise, it's summertime all year
And there's some folks we know, they say
Hello, I miss you so, wish you were here
The weather's nice, in paradise, it's summertime all year
The weather's nice, it's paradise, it's summertime all year
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near, I wish I could touch your face
And there's some folks we know, they say
Said he loves her and they told her
Said he loved her and they told her
He bought a postcard, on the front it just said Heaven
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
With a picture of the ocean and the beach
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
She got a call that night, but it wasn't from him
And the simple words he wrote her
And all the folks we know, they say
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Hello, I miss you so, wish you were here
