If heaven was an Hour, it would be twilight
When the fireflies start their dancin' on the lawn
And supper's on the stove, and mama's laughin'
And everybodys working day is done
If heaven was a town, it would be my town
Oh - on a summer day in 1985
And everything I wanted was out there waitin'
And everyone I loved was still alive
Chorus:
Dont cry a tear for me now, baby
There comes a time we all must say goodbye
And if thats what heaven's made of
You know I, I aint afraid to die
If heaven was a pie, it would be cherry
So cool and sweet, and heavy on the tongue
And just one bite would satisfy your hunger
And thered always be enough for everyone
If heaven was a train, it sure would be a fast one
That could take this weary traveler 'round the bend
If heaven was a tear, it'd be my last one
And youd be in my arms again
Chorus:
Dont cry a tear for me now, baby
There comes a time we all must say goodbye
And if thats what heaven's made of
You know I, I aint afraid to die
Yea, if thats what heaven's made of
You know I, I aint afraid to die.
