| My father said nothing comes easy
|
| And life ain’t fair, it isn’t hard to tell
|
| Your heart might break if things get heavy
|
| Sometimes to get ahead you gotta go through hell
|
| Oh, it’s a long way to heaven
|
| Yeah, it’s a long way from here
|
| I got a long way to heaven
|
| And I’m afraid I cannot stay
|
| If I get there
|
| There’s an honest man underneath this armor
|
| Reached his end and might have sealed his fate
|
| In the hardest times, I feel forgotten
|
| If God is coming, man, he’s running late
|
| Oh, it’s a long way to heaven
|
| Yeah, it’s a long way from here
|
| I got a long way to heaven
|
| And I’m afraid I cannot stay
|
| If I get there
|
| Take me back
|
| Take me back there
|
| Take me back
|
| Show me who I was
|
| Take me back
|
| To the time when I felt something real
|
| We were smiling up above
|
| Yeah, we were shining in the sun
|
| Oh, it’s a long way to heaven
|
| Yeah, it’s a long way from here
|
| I got a long way to heaven
|
| And I’m afraid I cannot stay
|
| If I get there
|
| If I get there |
