Heaven can wait

And a band of angels wrapped up in my heart

Will take me throu-ough the lonely night

Through the cold of the day

And I know-ow, I know

Heaven can wait

And all the gods come down here just to sing for me

And the melody-y's gonna make me fly

Without pain, without fear



Give me all of your drea-eams a-and

Let me go-o along on your way

Give me all of your prayers to sing and I'll

Turn the ni-ight into the skylight of day

I've got a taste of paradise

I'm never gonna let it slip away

I got a taste of paradise

It's all that I really need to make me stay

Just like a chi-ild again



Heaven can wait

And all I got is time unti-il the end of time

Well I won't look back, I won't look back

Let the a-altar-ar shine



And I know that I've 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 gotta 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 is time unti-il the end of time

Well I won't look back, I won't look back

Let the a-altar-ar shine



Heaven can wait, ahh..., heaven can wait

Well I won't look back, I won't look back

Let the a-altar-ar shine...

Let - the - al-tar shine...
