Got a ticket coming home,
Wish the officer had known
What a day today has been.
Then i stumbled through the door,
Dropping junk mail on the floor.
When will this day end?
But then your letter caught my eye,
Brought the hope in me to life,
�cause you know me very well,
And i bet you wrote me
Just to tell me,
In a little while,
We�ll be with the father;
Can�t you see him smile? (ooooooh....)
In a little while,
We�ll be home forever,
In a while....
We�re just here to learn to love him;
We�ll be home in just a little while.
Boy, that letter hit the spot--
Made me think of all i�ve got,
And all that waits for me.
Guess i�ve known it all day long;
Wonder where my thoughts went wrong.
When will my heart believe?
Waking half way through the night,
Reaching toward the lamp for light,
Picking up the word i find;
Here�s another letter
To remind me.
In a little while,
We�ll be with the father;
Can�t you see him smile? (ooooooh....)
In a little while,
We�ll be home forever,
In a while....
We�re just here to learn to love him;
We�ll be home in just a little while.
Days like these are just a test of our will.
Will we walk or will we fall?
Well, i can almost see the top of the hill,
And i believe it�s worth it all.
In a little while,
We�ll be with the father;
Can�t you see him smile? (ooooooh....)
In a little while,
We�ll be home forever,
In a while....
We�re just here to learn to love him;
We�ll be home in just a little while.
In a little while,
We�ll be with the father;
Can�t you see him smile? (ooooooh....)
In a little while,
We�ll be home forever,
In a while....
We�re just here to learn to love him;
We�ll be home in just a little--
In a little while,
We�ll be with the father;
Can�t you see him smile? (ooooooh....)
In a little while,
We�ll be home forever,
In a while....
We�re just here to learn to love him;
We�ll be home in just a little--
In a little while,
We�ll be with the father;
Can�t you see him smile? (ooooooh....)
In a little while,
We�ll be home forever,
In a while....
We�re just here to learn to love him;
We�ll be home in just a little--
In a little while,
We�ll be with the father;
Can�t you see him smile? (ooooooh....)
