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

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

Ooh, heaven can wait

I won’t look back

I won’t look back

Let the altars shine

Let the altars shine
