You don't belong in heaven
You were already an angel before you left
I know nothing in life is eternal
But I missed a moment to say goodbye to you
I, who was an apprentice to your stories
You a fountain in the desert, you my sister and I your child
You ran out of life to tell me
That you'd give yours to care for me on the path
You're going to fly, above the moon
Because there's no one like you, who can light my way
I'll look for you, when I don't have sanity
Because you give me yours even though I know you're not here
And though I know you missed seeing the peak
To be able to cry from joy or see the northern lights
To be able to feel what it's like to be a mother in this life
Before you left just like that
How you managed to smile every day
If I never understood why you left
How am I going to spend time understanding what life is
That someday I'll hug you when it's my turn to go up
I called you 'Tata' because you were the one who cared for me
You're going to fly, above the moon
Because there's no one like you, who can light my way
I'll look for you, when I don't have sanity
Because you give me yours even though I know you're not here
And though I know you missed seeing the peak
To be able to cry from joy or see the northern lights
To be able to feel what it's like to be a mother in this life
Before you left just like that
With a heart so big there won't be enough heaven
For you to enter, to wait for us forever
I'll tell my children that there's an angel
Who cares for us and is what we call luck
They say that he who isn't forgotten never dies
And that through their memory they don't escape the mind
So life, you can rest easy
