[Carl Thomas:]
Now that its over,
There's no more use for guns and wars.
Costs me a lifetime, just to gain this life's reward.
They say streets of gold.
Can you imagine somewhere where life will never ends?
No one ever grows old.
Oh my brother , please come with me.
It's what I live for.
A place where love will never cease.
Willing to die for.
Heaven is where I want to be.
[Michelle:]
There are instructions that we must follow to a "t".
In order to reach them.
Heaven is where I want to be.
They say streets of gold.
Can you imagine somewhere where life will never ends?
No one ever grows old.
Oh my brother , please come with me.
It's what I live for.
A place where love will never cease.
Willing to die for.
Heaven is where I want to be.
No more night, There is a place where there'll be no
more crying, yeah.
And He is Life. Counting those days when we meet in
the place...
Willing to die for... (ooh yeah.)
It's what I lived for.
A place where love will never cease.
Willing to die for.
Heaven is where I want to be. (I want to be)
