Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I've heard there's streets of gold up somewhere
But never seen it for myself
They say it's technicolor up there
But no one's made it back to tell
I don't know what I don't know
But I know...
There's no fear, no night, no more saying goodbye
No guilt, no pain, no more feeling your heartbreak
No tears, no death
And forever we'll thank God
For what's not in Heaven
Are there castles, are there mansions?
Will I know my friends by name?
Is it too good to imagine
Or just too much to explain?
I don't know what I don't know
But I know...
There's no fear, no night, no more saying goodbye
No guilt, no pain, no more feeling your heartbreak
No tears, no death
And forever we'll thank God
For what's not in Heaven
Thank God
Thank God
For what's not
Thank God
Thank God
For what's not
Thank God
Thank God
For what's not
Thank God
Thank God
For what's not
There's no fear, no night, no more saying goodbye
No guilt, no pain, no more feeling your heartbreak
No tears, no death
And forever we'll thank God
For what's not in Heaven
We'll thank God for what's not in Heaven
