Holes In The Floor Of Heaven Lyrics

(written by: Collin Raye)

Send "Holes In The Floor Of Heaven" Ringtone to your Cell

One day shy of eight years old,
When grandma passed away.
I was a broken hearted little boy,
Blowing out that birthday cake.
How I cried when the sky let go,
With a cold lonesome rain.
My mom smiled, said: "Don't be sad child.
"Grandma's watching you today."

"'Cos there's holes in the floor of Heaven,
"And her tears are pouring down.
"That's how you know she's watching,
"Wishing she could be here now.
"An' sometimes if you're lonely,
"Just remember she can see.
"There's holes in the floor of Heaven
"And she's watching over you and me."

Seasons come and seasons go,
Nothing stays the same.
I grew up, fell in love,
Met a girl who took my name.
Year by year, we made a life,
In this sleepy little town.
I thought we'd grow old together,
Lord, I sure do miss her now.

But there's holes in the floor of Heaven,
And her tears are pouring down.
That's how I know she's watching,
Wishing she could be here now.
An' sometimes when I'm lonely,
I remember she can see.
There's holes in the floor of Heaven,
And she's watching over you and me.

Well my little girl is 23,
I walk her down the aisle.
It's a shame her Mom can't be here now,
To see her lovely smile.
They throw the rice, I catch her eye,
As the rain starts coming down.
She takes my hand; says: "Daddy don't be sad,
'Cos I know Mama's watching now."

"And there's holes in the floor of Heaven
"And her tears are pouring down.
"That's how you know she's watching,
"Wishing she could be here now.
"An' sometimes when I'm lonely,
"I just remember she can see.
"Yes, there's holes in the floor of Heaven,
"And she's watching over you and me."

Watching over you and me.

Watching over you and me.

Watching over you and me.

I love this song because i lost my grandfather this past Thanksgiving (2007). My grandfather was a very loving,caring,And Honest man. When i was 9 years old my pap and gram adopted me from my birth mother their daughter-in-law don't get me wrong my mother was a great women but she was out of work and had 3 other kids to take care of and their father was not very involved. So i decided to live with my pap and gram so my mom could pay more attention to my 2 sisters and little brother.But my pap made sure i had everything i ever needed so did my gram they were the two most amazing people you could ever know. When he passed it killed me because not only did i lose my grandfather i lost my father and my best friend. My grandmother is still here with me and i love being with her as much as possible because he was her true love her soul mate. I am 25 years old i was 24 when i lost him it has not even been a year sence he passed but it hurts now more then ever because i have not even been able to say goodbye yet. He got to be there for my son for the first 3 years of his life.But he was only here for the first 6 months of my daughters life and she is missing out on knowing the most wonderfull man in the world. god bless you pap we miss you and love you very much......

i love this song, because my grandma passed away and i didn't get a chance to say goodbye, because i was at my surgery my grandpa gave me the gift that my grandma was going to give after my surgery. and when i got out of the surgery my mom told me that she died and i was not happy every single day, because my heart has been token and i didn't want her to die because she helps me study my homework and now im not studying real good, and she is real speciel for me. because she gives me every thing i wanted. she died July 2,2007. I love you soooooooo much Blanche Monks. from Mary Bixby

My dad died when i was two and a half weeks old. he was 23. that left my mom a widow at age 23. i am 13 and a half now and doing fine. its just so sad reading all these stories and seeing that there are people worse off than me. the other thing that is sad is that he will never walk me down the aisle when i get married. i miss u dearly dad even though i didnt get to see you.

My friend just told me about this song cause she had it on her name on the internet... so of course i asked. We are all having a difficult time right now and thats why she had it up...our fiend died today and yesterday was her birthday... i mean its so sad... she had 13 birthdays plus a half a day. but we all have to be strong because this song just reminds us of where she is now... she up in heaven... watching through one of those holes... we just all have to remember that. R.I.P LDR WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH... AND WE ALWAYS WILL... WE WONT FORGET YOU!!!

My Grandma died Aug 10 of this year...we were VERY close..out of all of her grandkids she would always say that i was her only one. This song kinda helps me because my grandma was a christian for as long as i can remember, and i know with out a doubt that she is in heaven, and just may be watching over me.

Everytime i hear this song i wanna cry i dedicate this song to my friend Vasiola Papamihal who died at 12:15 am, on January 2 2004, she had just turned 15 and was coming back from a family trip from florida. when a drunk driver going the wrong way on I-75 collided with them. it was horrible to hear the news... its been almost 2 months without you babygurl and its still unreal.. i hope to see you in heaven i love you and miss you. you'll never be forgotten.. thank you for everything you did..

My brother was murdered almost five years ago. I loved this song long before he died. My mother asked me if I wanted to have a song played at his funeral, this song came immediately to my mind. To this day I know my big brother is watching over me and keeps me safe.

This is a wonderful song! My 2 year old daughter passed away on July 7, 2000. Everytime it rains, I think of her & of this song. She was a very special little girl & is very much missed.
We love & miss you, Kayleigh Ann!
kgymnast17 18/08/2003 05:53:52
This is a great some with very meaningful lyrics. My dad passed away in October of 2001, and my best friend died of cancer in July of 2003. This some reminds me of both of these very special people in my life. Please know that I pray for everyone who has ever lost a loved one...my thoughts and prayers are with you.

This song was one of my mother's favorite songs,she past on almost three years ago. Every time I hear it I think of her and cry. It's so beautiful I just want to say to everyone who has lost a parent our grandparent that my prayers are with you and stay strong. If you keep them In your hearts they will always be there for you.
Lyndsi 22/07/2003 04:03:43
This song has special meaning to me and my mother, because it helped comfort us after my grandmother passed on four and a half years ago.
christillejo 15/07/2003 21:51:34
The first time I heard it, I cried and felt for the people who died in 9/11, then I felt for my greatgrandparents. I know someday, I will sing this song as everyone who is older dies, and it just tells the inevitable, that people die, and they watch you from heaven, until you get there. Someday....
miss innocent 12/07/2003 23:30:30

Why do you keep messing up on Collin's songs? This is by Steve Wariner not Collin. Also, George Strait sings "Check Yes or No".
eliz 12/02/2003 06:35:59
This is an incredibly moving song. You can't tell me you've heard it and felt nothing afterwards. I love it so much; it's wonderful. What else can I say?...
*erika lynn* 11/02/2003 19:50:33

All times are in Greenwich Mean Time.
The time is now 03:24:41.
