Tracy Lawrence - Heaven For A While lyrics

You know someone told me once That angels don't exist And that paradise was just a poor mans dream Without hesitation I can say he was mistaken Cause I've wrapped my arms around celestial wings But for reasons we don't know, some aren't meant to be here long, And then one day the good lord calls them home [Chorus:] Now I may never find peace or fulfill some destiny I may be cursed just to walk this earth alone And I never will erase the memory of her gentle face But I can go to the other side with a smile Cause I knew heaven for a while The other day I took a drive To that place up on the hill I brought flowers and I laid them on the stone And I sat there for some time With this runnin' through my mind How much we take for granted till it's gone Then I got back in my car and slowly drove away Knowing she was in a better place [Repeat Chorus] [Bridge:] The world turns and seasons change And rivers keep on runnin' to the sea Tears dry and hearts heal And what is meant to be will always be [Repeat Chorus]
