Lyrics Heaven Can Wait - Ellen Foley

Heaven Can Wait

10. Heaven Can Wait
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
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
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 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
Heaven can wait
and I won’t look back
I won’t look back
Let the altars shine
let the altars shine…
