Throwing water balloons, catching fireflies
Crazy how the time goes by
I miss you, oh, I miss you
Every year on the 4th of July
Watching fireworks lighting up the night
I miss you, oh, I miss you

We're not here to stay, it's temporary
There's a better place where we won't carry
Sickness, pain, our every tear
All of this will be left here
This is not goodbye
I'll see you in paradise
I'll see you in paradise

You often spoke of saving grace
But more than words, you lived your faith
Thank you, oh, I thank you
Looking around at the lives you touched
We all knew that we were loved
So thank you, oh, we thank you

We're not here to stay, it's temporary
There's a better place where we won't carry
Sickness, pain, our every tear
All of this will be left here
This is not goodbye
I'll see you in paradise
I'll see you in paradise

Death is just a part of life
That ushers in the Savior's bride
We're not here to stay, it's temporary
There's a better place where we won't carry
Sickness, pain, our every tear
All of this will be left here
This is not goodbye
I'll see you in paradise
I'll see you in paradise

Yeah, I'll see you in paradise
Oh, it's so hard to let you go
But in the end, I'm finding home
No, I'll see you in paradise
