Jack couldn't sleep. He got out of the bed and walked out into the night. He found the cemetery and ran to find Jessica's headstone. As he gets closer to it, memories of the service flows back at him hard.

The minister asked everyone to place roses onto the coffin. One by one everyone has place a rose onto the coffin. Jack places down his rose and breaks into tears as he collapsed stroking the coffin.

"Don't leave your Momma and I. Baby please don't leave us!"

Grace, Jessica's Momma overheard him and consoled him.

"Aw Jack she loved you more than life itself."

Jack nodded quietly.

Grace continued.

"You are the son I never had. Thank you for being my daughter's love of her life."

Jack said.

"Hey Baby,

How's life in Heaven? I wrote a song for you."

He grabbed the guitar and started to play.

"Verse 1:]
Tell me, what does it look like in heaven?
Is it peaceful? Is it free like they say?
Does the sun shine bright forever?
Have your fears and your pain gone away?

[Pre-hook:]
'Cause here on earth it feels like everything good is missing since you left
And here on earth everything's different, there's an emptiness

[Hook:]
Oh-oh, I,
I hope you're dancing in the sky
I hope you're singing in the angel's choir
I hope the angels know what they have
I'll bet it's so nice up in heaven since you arrived

[Verse 2:]
So tell me, what do you do up in heaven?
Are your days filled with love and light?
Is there music? Is there art and invention?
Tell me are you happy? Are you more alive?

[Pre-Hook:]
'Cause here on earth it feels like everything good is missing since you left
And here on earth everything's different, there's an emptiness

[Hook:]
Oh-oh, I,
I hope you're dancing in the sky
And I hope you're singing in the angel's choir
And I hope the angels know what they have
I'll bet it's so nice up in heaven since you arrived

I hope you're dancing in the sky
And I hope you're singing in the angel's choir
And I hope the angels know what they have
I'll bet it's so nice up in heaven since you arrived
Since you arrived."

He teared up a bit.

"I have visited your Momma she's doing wonderful! She still miss you."

He paused for a bit and said.

"My kids are learning about you these days. You would have loved them, Jess. My wife, Rebecca, my current Greatest love story knows of you and is aware that you are my first greatest love story I have made it clear to her when we met and before we have gotten married."

He wiped his eyes.

"You are still and always will be my first greatest love story, Jess. Keep resting in Heaven till we meet again."

AN song is by Dani and Lizzy Dancing in the Sky
