"Heaven" lyrics

"Heaven"

I gotta get myself together, 'cause I got some place to go
And I'm praying when I get there, I see everyone I know
I wanna go to Heaven, I wanna go to Heaven
Said I wanna go to Heaven, I wanna go to Heaven
Do you wanna go? (Oh, oh)

Can you picture a place where there's a smile on every face
And all the worry, all the stress and all the pressure's been erased
Walking down a street that's golden
Angels singing, perfect weather
Everybody's got a mansion
Y'all it just don't get no better
I wanna go, whoa (Oh, oh)

I gotta get myself together (Together), 'cause I got some place to go
And I'm praying when I get there, I see everyone I know
I wanna go to Heaven, I wanna go to Heaven
Said I wanna go to Heaven, I wanna go to Heaven
Do you wanna go? (Oh)

The only way I can explain it
Is that in life we go through changes
Though we know it serves a purpose
Still, sometimes it just seems worthless
But this race that I am running
Whether I run it fast or slow
Long as I just keep on running
I'm gonna make it there someday
I know, whoa (Oh, oh)

I gotta get myself together, 'cause I got some place to go
And I'm praying when I get there, I see everyone I know
I wanna go to Heaven, I wanna go to Heaven
Said I wanna go to Heaven, I wanna go to Heaven
Do you wanna go? (whoa, oh)

(There's a place for us) One day I wanna see it
(There's a place for us) And you may not believe it
But I'm just living my life, so I can live again
Every day I'm getting ready, 'cause I wanna make it in
Ooh, Heaven (Oh)

I gotta get myself together, 'cause I got some place to go (I got some place to go)
And I'm praying when I get there (I'm praying), I see everyone I know (Oh)
I wanna go to Heaven (I wanna go to Heaven), I wanna go to Heaven

Ooh, it gets hard sometimes
Sometimes I lose my way
But Lord knows I'm trying to get to Heaven someday
Said I wanna go to Heaven
To that beautiful city (I wanna go to Heaven)
But, I know you now (Do you wanna go? To Heaven)
Hope to meet you there (I wanna go to Heaven)
Said I wanna go to Heaven, I wanna go to Heaven (I wanna go to Heaven)
Do you wanna go? (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
