Why are you saying goodbye?
Why are you so far away?
I barely can see you now
The light is beginning to fade
I still remember your touch
And the sound of your voice
You would have stayed if you could have made the choice
Now that you know where Heaven is
You wouldn't trade that world for this
You wouldn't give up the streets made of gold now that you know
Now that you've reached that Holy Place
Now that you've looked upon His face
The half has never been told, now that you know
The river of time will roll on
Days will turn into years
As long as you're in my heart
You will always be near
If you were offered this life once again
And eternity's bridge could be burned
I'm sure you'd say "no", you'd never want to return
Now that you know where Heaven is
You wouldn't trade that world for this
You wouldn't give up the streets made of gold now that you know
Now that you've reached that Holy Place
Now that you've looked upon His face
The half has never been told, now that you know
I know I'll see you there
Now that you know where Heaven is
You wouldn't trade that world for this
You wouldn't give up the streets made of gold now that you know
Now that you've reached that Holy Place
Now that you've looked upon His face
The half has never been told, now that you know
You wouldn't change a single thing
Now that you've heard the angels sing
The half has never been told, now that you know
