IRON MAIDEN - Heaven Can Wait lyrics

rate me

Can't understand what is happening to me

This isn't real this is only a dream

But I never have felt no I never have felt this way before

I'm looking down on my body below

I lie asleep in the midst of a dream

Is it now could it be the angel of death has come for me

I can't believe that really my time has come

I don't feel ready there's so much left undone

And it's my soul and I'm not gonna let it get away

Heaven can wait/heaven can wait

Heaven can wait/heaven can wait 'til

Another day

I have a lust for the earth below

And hell itself is my only foe

'cause I've no fear of dying

I'll go when I'm good and ready

I snatch a glimpse of the lights eternal rays

I see a tunnel I stand amazed

At all of the people standing there in front of me

Into the path of rightness I'll be led

Is this the place where the living join the dead

I wish I knew this was only just a nightmare

Take my hand I'll lead you to the promised land

Take my hand I'll give you immortality

Eternal youth I'll take you to the other side

To see the truth the path for you is decided

My body tingles and I feel so strange

I feel so tired I feel so drained

And I'm wondering if I'll ever be the same again

Is this limbo or heaven or hell

Maybe I'm going down there as well

I can't accept my soul will drift forever

I feel myself floating back down to earth

So could this be the our of my rebirth

Or have I died or will I wake from dreaming?
