Tyashman Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Several years ago there was a country song about a girl getting married. Either her mother or father had died years earlier and on her wedding day the other parent gave her a rose/roses/flowers that had some significance in reminding her about the lost parent. Not much to go on I know, but does anyone remember this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sohr Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Are you maybe thinking of "Holes in the Floor of Heaven" by Steve Wariner? Holes in the Floor of Heaven One day, shy and 8 years old When grandma passed away I was a broken hearted little boy Blowing out that birthday cake How i cried when the sky let go With a cold lonesome rain My mom smiled, said "Don't be sad child. Grandma's watching you today." Cause there are holes in the floor of Heaven And her tears are pouring down That's how you know she's watching Wishing she could be here now Sometimes if you're lonely Just remember she can see There are holes in the floor of Heaven And she's watching over you and me Seasons come and seasons go Nothing stays the same I grew up, fell in love Met a girl who took my name Year by year we made a life In this sleepy little town I thought we'd grow old together Lord, I sure do miss her now Cause there's holes in the floor of Heaven And her tears are pouring down That's how I know she's watching Wishing she could be here now Sometimes when I'm lonely I just remember she can see There are holes in the floor of Heaven And she's watching over you and me Well my little girl is 23 I walk her down the aisle It's a shame her Mom can't be here now To see her lovely smile They throw the rice, I catch her eye As the rain starts coming down She takes my hand says, "Daddy don't be sad Cause I know Mama's watching now." There are holes in the floor of Heaven And her tears are pouring down That's how I know she's watching Wishing she could be here now Sometimes when I'm lonely I just remember she can see There are holes in the floor of Heaven And she's watching over you and me.

bazooka Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 I immediately thought of Eighteen Yellow Roses by Bobby Darin (<), but it doesn't really fit the story. I've never been much into country, but I think I vaguely remember a similar song that is a better match for your scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
