Heaven Can Wait

HEAVEN CAN WAIT I am feeling breathless I could be in a mess I really hope I make it through So many things I want to do But if I have to say goodbye No one can say I didn’t try Heaven can wait Heaven can wait for me I hope it’s not too late for me Please close those pearly gates for me Heaven can wait I want to feel the sun on my face Please take me to a better place I want to dive right in to the sea And be with dolphins feeling free I might even climb a tree Even though heights frighten me I’m just not ready yet It’s not my time Don’t want to remember, I can’t forget Don’t shine that light on me The tunnel I don’t want to see Heaven can wait The angels speak to me softly But heaven can wait for me This is not my time Heaven can wait for me now.
