| I’ve been dreaming of the day of judgment
|
| Wondering what I’ll say
|
| For the seasons I lost to sorrow
|
| The sin of my wasted days
|
| For the beauty I should have noticed
|
| The kindness I did not give
|
| The bounty I took for granted
|
| The life that I could have lived
|
| Held up at the gates of heaven
|
| Held up before the light
|
| Stretched out ‘til i was transparent
|
| There was nowhere i could hide
|
| The preacher he talks of glory
|
| Of streets to be paved in gold
|
| He’s got a book and he’s got a story
|
| And we all have heard it told
|
| Well I wonder how he came to thinking
|
| That he’s speaking for the one above
|
| ‘Cause the only rule I know is true
|
| There’s no limit to the reach of love
|
| No Limit to the reach of love
|
| Held up at the gates of heaven
|
| Held up before the light
|
| Stretched out ‘til i was transparent
|
| There was nowhere i could hide
|
| Sent back to the living world
|
| I’ve got so much more to learn
|
| Everybody makes the same mistakes
|
| Everybody takes their turn
|
| How can you sit in judgment
|
| How do you cast that stone
|
| When everybody here’s a sinner
|
| And everybody feels alone
|
| Brother you aren’t so broken
|
| Sister you ain’t so small
|
| Everybody leaves together
|
| Or nobody goes at all
|
| Held up at the gates of heaven
|
| Held up before the light
|
| Stretched out till i was transparent
|
| There was nothing i could hide
|
| Sent back to the living world
|
| I’ve got so much more to learn
|
| Everybody makes the same mistakes
|
| Everybody takes their turn
|
| Everybody makes the same mistakes
|
| And everybody takes their turn |
