Heaven Says Hello
Kitty Wells · Cream of Country Hits [1968]
Heaven says hello every morning when the sun says hi
I've come to spend the day
Heaven says hello with the songbirds and the little flowers
That nod along my way.
And when the day is through and I hurry home to you
As the twilight steals across the golden skies
Heaven says hello when you kiss me
And I look into the blue of your eyes.
(And when the day is through and I hurry home to you
As the twilight steals across the golden skies
Heaven says hello when you kiss me
And I look into the blue of your eyes.)
And I look into the blue of your eyes...
