If Heaven

If heaven was an hour it would be twilight When the fireflies start their dancing on the lawn And supper's on the stove and mama's laughing And everybody's 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 is out there waiting And everyone I loved is still alive Don't cry a tear for me now, baby There comes a time we all must say goodbye And if that's what heaven's made of You know I, I ain't 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 there'd 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 you'd be in my arms again Don't cry a tear for me now, baby There comes a time we all must say goodbye And if that's what heaven's made of You know I, I ain't afraid to die Yeah, if that's what heaven's made of You know I, I ain't afraid to die
