We climbed the mountain to the skies
As the world keeps turning
We keep on learning
I built this world for you and I
So we could love forever for all eternity
And I can't stop the tears
As time comes to take you away
If we could have just one more day
We're closer to heaven
Still have the fading memories
Closer to heaven
With you
After all
And in the morning blessed rain
As the tears keep falling
A new day's dawning
There's nothing left to keep me here
There'll be no returning
I'll keep wandering on
The tongue of the liar
The poison that comes from your heart
Now that we sailed the dawns of time
Closer to heaven
Now we can leave the world behind
We're closer to heaven again
After all
After all
Daylight shining through my window
Gone the dark night
We keep on learning
I build this world for you and I
Where we can live forever
And love together evermore
We climbed the mountain to the skies
As the world keeps turning
We keep on learning
I built this world for you and I
So we could love forever for all eternity
Can't stop the tears
As time comes to take you away
If we could have just one more day
We're closer to heaven
I still have the fading memories
I'm closer to heaven
