Can Heaven Wait

Quarter after seven, got a phone call Telling me to get here quick Said "Your girl is in a bad situation They don't know if she's gonna make it" As I hurry to be by her side I ask a thousand times, why oh why There's no rhyme or reason in my life With you lying here this way I'd give anything just to trade places with you So I'm begging heaven down on my knees To help you make it through Tell me, can heaven wait Can heaven wait just one more night Tell me what it's gonna take To keep you with me in my life Giving up the shame of my other life Now I'm seeing things in a whole new light Lord, I vow to change if you just make it right Can heaven wait one night Thinking back on times that I've wasted I should have cherished every day All the different flavors that I tasted Can't compare to you, no way As I reminisce by your side Tears of guilt are streaming from my eyes All the things I did that weren't right Wish I could apologize I'd give anything if I could trade places with you So I'm beggin' heaven down on my knees To help you make it through Tell me, can heaven wait Can heaven wait just one more night Tell me what it's gonna take To keep you with me in my life I'm gonna stop the world, reverse the time Do whatever it takes to keep you alive Heaven has to wait one more day Baby, take my breath so you can breathe I need you here so don't you leave Heaven has to wait Tell me, can heaven wait Can heaven wait just one more night Tell me what it's gonna take To keep you with me in my life Tell me, can heaven wait Can heaven wait just one more night Tell me what it's gonna take To keep you with me in my life Tell me, can heaven wait Can heaven wait just one more night Tell me what it's gonna take To keep you with me in my life ...
