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've got a taste of paradise I'm never gonna let it slip away 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 is time until the end of time And I won't look back, I won't look back Let the altars 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've got a taste of paradise That's all I really need to make me stay 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 is time until the end of time And I won't look back, I won't look back Let the altars shine Heaven can wait Oh, Heaven can wait And I won't look back I won't look back Let the altars shine Let the altars shine
