lyrics

If I Go To Heaven

If I go to heaven, hope I sleep in a king-size bed and
If I go to heaven, hope I see every dog I ever had and
If I go to heaven, hope I don’t go without my friends cause
everything I’ve done, right or wrong, would’ve meant nothing if it weren’t for them

But first I gotta get to the holy place
make it through the world without falling from grace
so I won’t be ashamed to show my face
if it turns out that there’s days beyond days
love beyond love, space beyond space
I’ll be the first to say that I’m amazed



Don’t know much about heaven
If there’s a heaven then I think it’s right here and
If I go to heaven will the grass & trees & sun & sky
and all the things I loved while living disappear?

But first I gotta get to the holy place
make it through the world without falling from grace
so I won’t be ashamed to show my face
if it turns out that there’s days beyond days
love beyond love, space beyond space
I’ll be the first to say that I’m amazed

You can sing along and get the words all wrong
But it’s the sweetest song, the sweetest song
It’s the sweetest song that you ever heard
You can cry in the night and think you’re alone
Then you find there’s love that you didn’t know
It’s the sweetest song that you ever heard

If I go to heaven I won’t be lost, I’m gonna recognize
Cause I ain’t a believer but I ain’t no fool
And I been walking this world with open eyes
I’ve seen tragedy, I’ve heard melody, I’ve heard babies cry
I saw my dog die
And we have all been in heaven, we have all been in hell
We have all been born, we are all gonna die

But first we gotta get to the holy place
make it through the world without falling from grace
so we won’t be ashamed to show our face
if it turns out that there’s days beyond days
love beyond love, space beyond space
I’ll be the first to say that I’m amazed
if I go to heaven.
