I never knew
Just what it meant
To live
Until I died.

When the last breath
Escaped my lips
And all went black,
I just wanted time to turn back.

Heaven awaited
Yet Earth
Was where I
Longed to remain.

God and His angels
Called me forward
But I couldn't
Help looking back.

As I rose toward
The Pearly Gates
I did all I could to fall
Back to Earth.

But nothing I could do
Could help me fall.
So here I sit, upon my cloud.
This Heaven is my Hell without you.
