Heaven's Not Too Far Songtext
von We Three

Honey I thought you should know that I′m in a hurry
I've got to move up north, but it′s just temporary
I really tried not to lie, but this burdens getting heavy
No, you can't come with me this time, you got your own destiny

When I look at you I see your beauty
Now my baby boy he's gonna lose me

But heavens not too far away, I know someday you′ll visit
And I didn′t think I'd go this way, can I please have one more minute

No honey I don′t want to go, please know that I have to
Look how the cancer has grown, I think it's time I go home
Yes I can still hear your voice, sounds just like it did
And I can still feel your hand, when it touches my skin


But heavens not too far away, I know someday you′ll visit
And I didn't think I′d go this way, can I please have one more minute
I gave you life now you gotta watch it leave my eyes
But heavens not too far away, I know someday you'll visit

As death rattles my cage, I can hear their voices fading
Each breath getting harder
I can hear the tears coming from my daughter
And to her older brother, he's thinking back when he was younger
When he had a healthy mother
Who asked him to take care of his little brother
And he′s not really sure about life
Or that how could any of this be right
But I know my babies they will be fine
Cause they can talk to me anytime

Cause, Heavens not too far away, I know someday you′ll visit
I didn't think I′d go this way, can I please have one more minute
I gave you life now you gotta watch it leave my eyes
But heavens not too far away, I know someday you'll visit


Honey I thought you should know, that I′m in a hurry
I've got a move up north, but it′s just temporary
