Tributes to BD by Glenn Miller

Heaven Swings ...
When Mr. Darin Sings!

Below is a wonderful song that Glenn Miller wrote and and sang as a tribute to Bobby. Dodd Darin told Glenn that he was "very touched by the heartfelt lyrics" and he was "completely blown away" by Glenn's inflection and timing, which is so similar to his father's delivery. Heaven Swings There's a man at the gate he's complaining he says he's not ready for you please God come here and do some explaining he swears what you've done is taboo He wants answers and he'd like them real fast he says he ain't got no time to waste his impatience nobody can surpass he says come on out show your face It's like this said God to Bobby we just wanna have you around just look over there for your stage is set so will you go and make a sound? Took time out to consider the request realized he just couldn't say no he decided that he'd give 'em his best said c'mon lets get on with the show Made his way to the stage as the crowd roared grabbed the mic then he started to sing clicked his fingers the whole of the band soared he cried out watch me make Heaven swing INSTRUMENTAL BREAK He had only been there just a few days but boy was he in big demand yes he was the favourite as always he had the crowd in the palm of his hand The man is made solely of music each part like a Finely tuned key everything that he's got he will use it no one else can compare you'd agree We want more yelled the crowd to Bobby there's no way we'll let you go get up and take the stage again now 'cause you really stole the show Heaven swings, Heaven swings when Mr. Darin sings He's got rhythm in his fingers his head and in his toes all over his body see how it flows when there's a crowd he's in the middle and God plays second fiddle (X 2) to him of course WRITTEN BY GLENN MILLER & STEVEN MILLER COPYRIGHT 1995 / PRODUCED & ARRANGED BY GRAHAM BROWN
