She said I've been up all night and half-scared to death I can smell the liquor on your breath I payed for your rehab with my ira Boy your daddy'd be turning in his grave She said son I've done all mama can do I can save myself but I can't save you He said I wished you and Jesus would get off my back They said his truck was doing 90 when he crashed I bet it gets so quiet in heaven sometimes Even god cries when an angels hands are tied They said honey grown-ups do this all the time And tears welled up in their little girls eyes They said now it's not something that you've done It just that mommy and daddy don't get along She said do you guys mean that you need a time out And that daddy's gonna move to a different house They said you'll have two bedrooms you're a lucky kid She said what about checkers, where's he gonna live I bet it gets so quiet in heaven sometimes Even god cries when an angels hands are tied She prays, angels watch me through the night Stay by my side 'til morning light God bless mama, god bless daddy Keep us together and happy I bet it gets so quiet in heaven sometimes Even god cries when an angels hands are tied
