You could see in the eyes of the dying man
His light has something there he can comprehend
Call it fear or a certainty
There's always a lingering question about eternity
Can't help but think about
Where am I going when it's said and done
Is there anything after life under the sun
And so I slip away into my thoughts
Think about my right and my wrongs
And I realize this life is just a breath
Because time is shorter than I know
And somewhere deep inside I just can't wait to go
And I lift this veil from eyes and I fly away
I've waited all of my life for this day
When I step my dirty feet through the pearly gates
And I finally see my best friend face to face
I'm in Heaven
I'm in Heaven
I started walking down the streets of gold
In a moment surrounded by everyone I've ever known
Can't help but notice there's a perfect smile on every face
Shouts of joy, and call my name
Overwhelmed by a peace that I can't describe
And so I slip away into my thoughts
Think about the world that I lost
And I realize the world that lays ahead
There's no more crime, no more pain
No more death and suffering
Because all my sin and all my shame
has finally passed away
And I lift this veil from eyes and I fly away
I've waited all of my life for this day
When I step my dirty feet through the pearly gates
And I finally see my best friend face to face
I'm in Heaven
I'm in Heaven
And I lift this veil from eyes and I fly away
I've waited all of my life for this day
When I step my dirty feet through the pearly gates
And I finally see my best friend face to face
I'm in Heaven
I'm in Heaven
