I thought I had to die to go to Heaven
But I live in Heaven with you
I thought I had to sleep before eleven
Till I felt midnight with you
I thought by now that I'd have found a million times around the world
A love that was true
I thought I had to die to go to Heaven
Till I found Heaven with you
I've been runnin' round and round with life
And it's still undefeated
Every time that I get up, it knocks me down, and I've been thinkin'
I've been chasing shooting stars, burned out before I reach 'em
And now you're in my arms
My love, it sure is good to meet you
And whoa, somehow, the stars have all aligned
And whoa, thank God that love found me
I thought I had to die to go to Heaven
But I live in Heaven with you
I thought I had to sleep before eleven
Till I felt midnight with you
I thought by now that I'd have found a million times around the world
A love that was true
I thought I had to die to go to Heaven
Till I found Heaven with you
Ain't it funny how I never saw the roses
'Cause I was always thinkin' 'bout the thorns
Instead of catching my breath at the stoplights of life
All I heard was people honking horns
And whoa, I had to fall down on my knees
And whoa, for you to finally show me
I thought I had to die to go to Heaven
But I live in Heaven with you
I thought I had to sleep before eleven
Till I felt midnight with you
I thought by now that I'd have found a million times around the world
A love that was true
I thought I had to die to go to Heaven
Till I found Heaven with you
And whoa, thank God the stars have all aligned
And whoa, thank God you showed me that
I didn't have to die to go to Heaven
'Cause I live in Heaven with you
Thank God I never had to die to go to Heaven in my life
'Cause I live in Heaven with you
And if someday I ever have to die to go to Heaven
I know I'll be in Heaven with you
