[verse 1]
once in a man’s lifetime, some single event will take place and shape his entire life. mine was meeting angel, the most beautiful and sweetest girl in the world who surprised an entire town by falling in love with a bum like me. of course, angel wasn’t her real name, but i started calling her that after we were married because that’s what she was to me and if a man ever had a heaven on earth, it was me. i always tried to do everything i could to make her life easier. i even wished it was me who went through the pains and the tortures of having our two children. and i told her so many times of how she had made my own private heaven that one day that maybe for a laugh, more than anything else, she made and painted a sign and hung it in the hallway. it was the first thing i noticed when i walked in and it said simply, in beautiful words “welcome home to heaven”. she wanted to take it down, but i said no, and after that, even when i’d come home tired or a little moody, that sign always seemed to bring back the realization that indeed i was “home to heaven”

[verse 2]
and then, without warning, as tragedies always are and just as quick as angel had come into my life, angel was gone and with her went the foundation and the very walls of my heaven. i tried to survive on memories for a while ~ god knows i had enough to last forever ~ but it was too much for a simple, ordinary man like me. and i tried to find peace in the bars and on the streets and finally in the gutters. and i’ve long since put down the sign that she had made ’cause there was no heaven there now, not without my angel

[verse 3]
but one day, i managed to get home in a not~too~drunken condition and had laid down on the couch when our two almost~forgotten children came in and climbed up beside me. “daddy,” the oldest one said, “don’t you still love us?” and as i looked back at them, i suddenly realized that all the love angel had, she was touching me through them. and i saw her in every detail of their little faces and i hugged them tightly. “daddy, you sad again? why did mommy leave?” and i fought back the tears as i said, “well, maybe god was having a little trouble with his heaven and needed an angel like ours to kinda help straighten things out. but don’t worry, we’ll see her again someday.” and then he looked up and said, “but how will we know she still loves us?” then, before i could answer, the littlest guy said, “silly, she’ll have a sign just like the one she had for daddy.” and i kissed ’em both and put ’em to bed and i made a few promises to ’em and a few to myself, too

[verse 4]
the next morning, i got up and dressed and went to work a new man and all day long, i could hardly wait to get back home. then, as i hurried into the driveway and up to the door that evening, i felt the same antic~p~tion i’d known with angel. and as i opened the door, i saw a sign that put a lump in my throat as big as a baseball, for there in the hallway and just a little crooked with fingerprints all over it hung a brand new homemade sign. in somewhat cruder but very familiar words, it read: “welcome home to heaven”
