My father said nothing comes easy.
And nothing fair isn't hard to tell.
Your heart might break when things get heavy.
Sometimes to get ahead you gotta go through hell.
Oh It's a long way to heaven.
Yeah It's a long way from here.
I got a long way to heaven.
And I'm afraid I cannot stay if I get there.
There's an honest man underneath his armor.
Reached his end and may have sealed his fate.
In the hardest times I feel forgotten.
If God is coming,man he's runnin'late.
Oh It's a long way to heaven.
Yeah It's a long long way from here.
I got a long way to heaven.
And I'm afraid I cannot stay if I get there.
Take me back, take me back,yeah.
Take me back, show me who I was.
Take me back to a time when I feel something real.
We were smiling up above.
Yeah we were shining in his sun.
Oh It's a long way to heaven.
Yeah It's a long way from here.
I got a long way to heaven.
And I'm afraid I cannot stay if I get there.
If I get there.
