Heaven Can Wait
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I was livin' for tomorrow
Hangin' on from day to day
Tired of chasin' a dream
That so constantly seemed
To just slip away
Oh, now that I've found a love that's forever
Heaven can wait till then
Oh, at last I can see how sweet love can be
So if it's not too late
Heaven can wait
Life is short, my darlin'
But tomorrow come what may
You are here in my heart
And that's something that no one can take away
Oh, now that I've found a love that's forever
Heaven can wait till then
Oh, at last I can see how sweet love can be
So if it's not too late
Heaven can wait
Oh, now that I've found a love that's forever
Heaven can wait till then
Oh, at last I can see how sweet love can be
So if it's not too late
Heaven can wait
Heaven can wait
Heaven can wait
Heaven can wait
