[Intro]
(Atmospheric delay-heavy electric guitar swells)
[Verse 1]
I’ve been staring at the skyline, waiting for the light
Tracing constellations in the middle of the night
There’s a tension in the air, a distance I can feel
But the promise of the coming dawn is more than just a real
Yeah, it’s more than just a real
[Chorus]
Oh, take me to that open space
Where the shadows fall away from Your face
It’s the city with the golden streets
Where the broken heart and the healer meet
Heaven, it’s closer than the air I breathe
Yeah, Heaven, it’s the mystery that I believe
[Verse 2]
No more echoes of the sorrow, no more salt upon the skin
Just the rhythm of the spirit letting all the sunlight in
It’s a language that we’re learning, a song we haven’t heard
Every heavy burden lifted by a single spoken word
Just a single spoken word
[Chorus]
Oh, take me to that open space
Where the shadows fall away from Your face
It’s the city with the golden streets
Where the broken heart and the healer meet
Heaven, it’s closer than the air I breathe
Yeah, Heaven, it’s the mystery that I believe
[Bridge]
(Building intensity, driving bassline)
It’s the hope that pulls us forward
It’s the anchor in the gale
It’s the kingdom coming down
And the light that cannot fail
Cannot fail, yeah, it cannot fail!
[Outro]
(Soaring, anthemic guitar solo)
We are running, we are running
To the place where You are
Yeah, we’re almost there
Almost there
(Fade out with ethereal synths and delay)
