La da da da de de de de de

The moment was custom-made to order:
I was ridin' with my daughter on our way back from monroe
An' like children do, she started playin' twenty questions
But I never could of guessed one would touch me to my soul

She said: "daddy, when we get to heaven, can I taste the milky way?
"Are we goin' there to visit, or are we goin' there to stay?
"Am I gonna see my grandpa? can I have a pair of wings?
"An' do you think that god could use another angel
"To help pour out the rain?"

La da da da de de de de

Well, I won't lie: I pulled that car right over
An' I sat there on the shoulder tryin' to dry my misty eyes
An' I whispered: "lord, I wanna thank you for my children
"'Cause your innocence that fills them often takes me by surprise."

Like: "daddy, when we get to heaven, can I taste the milky way?
"Are we goin' there to visit, or are we goin' there to stay?
"Am I gonna see my grandpa? can I have a pair of wings?
"An' do you think that god could use another angel
"To help pour out the rain?"

Well, I thought about it later on
An' a smile came to my face
An' when I tucked her in to bed
I got down on my knees an' prayed

Lord, when I get to heaven, can I taste the milky way?
"I don't wanna come to visit 'cause I'm comin' home to stay?
"An' I can't wait to see my family and meet jesus face to face
"An' do you think, lord, you could use another angel
"To help pour out the rain?"

Mmmm, can I help pour out the rain?
Can I help pour out the rain?
