Lyrics Lucinda Williams

Lucinda Williams

If There's a Heaven

When you go, you let me know if there's a heaven out there

When you leave me here to grieve in pain and despair

I've seen the face of hell, I know that place pretty damn well

But when you go, you'll let me know if there's a heaven out there

On the day you fly away, far beyond the blue

When you're done, and your run is finally through

I'm forced to let go, there'll be no greater sorrow

On that day you fly away, far beyond the blue

I'll be lost when you cross over to the other side

Will my pain be in vain, I found out they lie

When you go I need to know that what they say is really so

'Cause I'll be lost when you cross over to the other side

You promise me this before you let go of my hand

Before we visit our last kiss and you are cold and cannot stand

Before it's finally time and you've taken my sunshine

Will you promise me this before you let go of my hand

When you go, you let me know if there's a heaven out there

When you leave me here to grieve in pain and despair

I've seen the face of hell, I know that place pretty damn well

But when you go, you'll let me know if there's a heaven out there

When you go, you let me know

If there's a heaven out there
