You can see it in the eyes of a dying man... It's like there's something there he can't comprehend Call it fear or uncertainty There's always this lingering question about eternity Can't help but think about... Where am I going when it's said and done? Or is there anything after life under the sun? So I slip away in my thoughts I think about my rights and my wrongs And I realize this life is just a breath 'Cause time is shorter than I know But somewhere deep inside I just can't wait to go... I'll lift this veil from my eyes and I'll fly away... I've waited all of my life for this day When I step my dirty feet through the pearly gates And I finally see my best Friend face to face... I'm in Heaven I start walking down the streets of gold In a moment surrounded by everyone I've ever known... I can't help but notice there's a perfect smile on every face Shouts of joy that call my name... Overwhelmed by a peace that I can't describe So I slip away in my thoughts I think about the world that I lost And I realize the world that lays ahead... There's no more crying, no more pain, no more death or suffering 'Cause all my sin and all my shame has finally passed away
