Heaven Can Wait
Heaven can wait
And a band of angels wrapped up in my heart
Will take me through the lonely night
Through the cold of the day
And I know, I know:
Heaven can wait
And all the gods come down here
Just to sing for me
And the melody’s gonna make me fly
Without pain
Without fear
Give me all of your dreams
And let me go along on your way
Give me all of your prayers to sing
And I’ll turn the night into the skylight of day
I got a taste of paradise
I’m never gonna let it slip away
I got a taste of paradise
That’s all I really need
To make me stay—just like a child again
Heaven can wait
And all I got it’s time until the end of time
I won’t look back
I won’t look back
Let the altars shine …
And I know that I been released
But I don’t know to where
Nobody’s gonna tell me now
And I don’t really care
No, no, no—I got a taste of paradise
That’s all I really need to make me stay
I got a taste of paradise
If I had it any sooner you know—
You know I never would have run away—from my home
Heaven can wait
And all I got it’s time until the end of time
I won’t look back
I won’t look back
Let the altars shine
Heaven can wait
Oh, heaven can wait
I won’t look back
I won’t look back
Let the altars shine
Let the altars shine …
