Lyrics
How Far Is Heaven
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.
Standing silent in the pouring rain,another tear falls from my eyes.
And in the quiet torrential pain, I try to reconcile my mind.
She was my love, she was everything, ooo I never dreamed that she would go.
I know she had to leave, but only god knows why.
Just before she left, she asked me with a sigh.
(chorus)
Heaven- I really need to know, Is it a long way? I really need to know, How far is Heaven?
The candle's burning low
With every moment our lives unwind, each breath more precious than the last.
With every heartbeat each grain of time, the future fades into the past.
Life has a time for everything, ooo when it comes and when it goes.
So treasure every moment, follow all your dreams, live a life of love, it's shorter than it seems.
(chorus)
Heaven- I really need to know, Is it a long way? I really need to know, How far is Heaven?
Now all the nights are long and cold, and the world closes in and the pain is so strong, I pray for the light and dry my tired eyes, But not for the last time.
(chorus)
Heaven- I really need to know, Is it a long way? I really need to know, How far is Heaven?
