Intro
Mmm…
Ohhh…
If I could take one walk tonight…
I know where I would go…
Verse 1
Can I take a walk up to heaven
Just to watch you sleep awhile
Stand beside the gates in silence
Only just to see your smile
And when the morning light surrounds you
When your eyes begin to shine
I would take your hand so gently
Bring you back and make you mine
Pre-Chorus
I don’t need to call your number
Heaven don’t got phones to ring
And the other lines stay crowded
With broken hearts and missing things
We don’t need no roll call, darling
Love already knows our names
Even worlds apart can’t stop it
Even death can’t break these chains
Chorus
I wrote a letter up to heaven
Said I need to borrow you
For the rest of all my lifetime
For the dreams we didn’t do
But I think I got here early
God knows I waited far too long
If your voice still lives inside me
Then your heart still leads me on
Come back through the stars and find me
If only for a little while
I would trade my tears forever
Just to see your face and smile
Verse 2
Every room still holds your shadow
Every door still speaks your name
I still turn to tell you something
Then remember nothing’s changed
I still save a space beside me
Still reach over in my sleep
Still hear laughter in the silence
Still got promises to keep
Pre-Chorus 2
People say that time will heal me
But they never loved like this
Some hearts keep on beating broken
Some souls live inside the miss
Chorus
I wrote a letter up to heaven
Said I need to borrow you
For the rest of all my lifetime
For the dreams we didn’t do
But I think I got here early
God knows I waited far too long
If your voice still lives inside me
Then your heart still leads me on
Come back through the stars and find me
If only for a little while
I would trade my tears forever
Just to see your face and smile
Bridge
If love can cross the sky above me
If memory can breathe again
Then meet me in the quiet midnight
Till I hold your hand again
Final Chorus / Outro
I wrote a letter up to heaven
Hope they let it through the blue
If forever means remembering
Then forever lives in you
Can I take one walk to heaven…
Just to bring you back with me
I am not ready to live there yet
So come home and set me free
Bring peace back to this house tonight
Bring warmth back to these empty rooms
Till the day we meet in heaven’s light
Come home beneath the moon…
Mmm…
Ohhh…
