Lyrics
WHERE DOES LOVE GO WHEN IT DIES L.Flowers
He was 6 years old when his daddy left
His momma cried for days
He said Mom I?m sorry if I was bad
And made Daddy go away
She said it wasn?t you, our love just died
He asked as he began to cry
CHORUS 1 :
Where does love go when it dies
Do the angels give it wings
Is there a way to mend a broken heart
To make it work again
Is there a special place is heaven
For the tears that people cry
Tell me Momma where does love go when it dies
A single tear ran down her cheek
As she hugged him close
And said sometimes these things just happen
For reasons we don?t know
Later when she went upstairs
She heard him ask in his prayers
CHORUS 2:
Where does love go when it dies
Do the angels give it wings
Is there a way to mend Mom?s broken heart
To make it work again
Is there a special place in heaven
For the tears that people cry
Tell me God where does love go when it dies
Bridge :
His words were still inside her head
When she tried to sleep that night
How could a six year old begin to know
What she?s asked herself a hundred times
CHORUS 3:
Where does love go when it dies
Can the angels give it wings
Is there a way to mend my broken heart
To make it work again
Is there an answer to the questions
In the tears that I have cried
Tell me God where does love go when it dies
