Lyrics

When it's decoration day up in Heaven There's a bouquet I'm longing to see There's a flower somewhere in this bouquet And means all the world to me Now, tonight the old home place's lonely Since Mother has been called away And I know I can never more see her 'Til we meet on that decoration day When it's decoration day up in Heaven There's a bouquet I'm longing to see There's a flower somewhere in this bouquet And means all the world to me I remember the night the angels called her To live on that beautiful shore It left us so lonely here without her It can never be home anymore When it's decoration day up in Heaven There's a bouquet I'm longing to see There's a flower somewhere in this bouquet And means all the world to me
