Stealing Heaven

Stealing Heaven


You long for a way to slow down time
You long for a way to save your mind
You feel that the years have passed you by
And now you're asking yourself why

Do you really think that you can get it all back again?
Did you really believe there really was no end?

Chorus:
No matter how far you may make yourself go
No matter all the reasons you're giving to do this for
I hope you know you're only trying to steal heaven
And you'll be caught before you make it out God's back door

You long for the time when your life was young
You long for the day your song was barely sung
But no matter how you search it seems
Your hopes fade along with your dreams

Do you really think that you can have it all the same?
Did you really think you could find someone else to blame?

(Chorus)

(Guitar and piano duet)

You wish you could do it all again
There's so many things you'd like to mend
Don't spend time thinking over yesterday
Tomorrow as you know's another day

Do you really think I'd leave you alone with this pain?
Did you really think that no one's ever felt the same?

(Chorus)

You'll be caught before you make it out God's back door


--March 1998
