Heaven Can WaitCan�t understand what is happening to meThis isn�t real this is only a dream But I never have felt, no I never have felt this way before I�m looking down on my body below I lie asleep in the midst of a dream Is it now could it be the Angel of Death has come for me I can�t believe that really my time has come I don�t feel ready there�s so much left undone And it�s my soul and I�m not gonna let it get away Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait til another day I have a lust for the Earth below And Hell itself is my only foe `Cause I�ve no fear of dying I�ll go when I�m good and ready I snatch a glimpse of the lights eternal rays I see a tunnel I stand amazed At all of the people standing there in front of me Into the paths of lightness I�ll be led Is this the place where the living join the dead I wish I knew this was only just a nightmare Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait til another day Take my hand I�ll lead you to the promised land Take my hand I�ll give you immortality Eternal youth I�ll take you to the other side To see the truth the path for you is decided My body tingles I feel so strange I feel so tired I feel so drained And I�m wondering if I�ll ever be the same again Is this in limbo or Heaven or hell Maybe I�m going down there as well I can�t accept my soul will drift forever I feel myself floating back down to Earth So could this be the hour of my rebirth Or have I died or will I wake from dreaming? Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait til another day |
