lyrics

Heaven's Gate (Version 2)

Sad eyes stretch shadows out of shape
Search in vain for some means of escape
From your heart
As the night falls into despair
And the time crawls

I want you to hold me
Open heaven's gate

Sad eyes search for silhouettes, a sign
For a lifeline to your heart
As the dawn breaks down into tears
And your mind aches

I want you to hold me
Open heaven's gate
I want you to hold it open
Don't make me wait
At heaven's gate

As the day breaks into a smile
It's been a long while

I want you to hold me
Open heaven's gate
I want you to hold it open
It's not too late
Don't make me wait
At heaven's gate
