Lyrics

[00:08.17] If heaven was an hour it would be twilight
[00:13.77] When the fireflies start their dancin' on the lawn
[00:21.72] And supper's on the stove and mama's laughin'
[00:28.18] And everybody's workin' day is done
[00:35.64] If heaven was a town it would be my town
[00:41.46] On a summer day in 1965
[00:48.77] And everythin' I wanted was out there waitin'
[00:55.97] And everyone I loved was still alive
[01:03.50] Don't cry a tear for me now, baby
[01:10.35] Comes a time we all must say goodbye
[01:17.88] And if that's what heaven's made of
[01:22.18] You know I ain't afraid to die
[01:34.39] If heaven was a pie it would be cherry
[01:40.95] Cool and sweet and heavy on your tongue
[01:47.52] And just one bite would satisfy your hunger
[01:53.78] And there'd always be enough for everyone
[02:02.21] If heaven was a train it'd be a fast one
[02:07.93] To take this weary traveler 'round the bend
[02:15.13] And if heaven was a tear it'd be my last one
[02:22.77] And you'd be in my arms again
[02:29.54] Don't cry a tear for me now, baby
[02:36.56] Comes a time we all must say good bye
[02:44.18] And if that's what heaven's made of
[02:48.56] You know I ain't afraid to die
[02:58.14] And if that's what heaven's made of
[03:05.22] I ain't afraid to die
