By the Time I Get to Heaven Songtext

von Espen Lind

By the time I get to heaven
I'll be singin' loud and clear
By the time I get to heaven
All my faith will reappear

If the road is full of strangers
And I find it hard to see
I'll be searching for my angel
Who will lead the way for me

(Ooooo...)

By the time I get to heaven
I'll no longer be a freak
I'll have to learned to say I'm sorry
And to think before I speak

By the time I get to heaven
Hope I've been among the best
By the time I get to heaven
I will lay my cross to rest

And should somebody bring me down
I'm gonna have you come around
I need your presence and protection
I'll ditch the dope and cut my hair
And rediscover savoire-faire
I'll be close to pure perfection

By the time I get to heaven
No more cursing no more lies
By the time I get to heaven
I'll be set for paradise

By the time (By the time)
I get to heaven (I get to heaven)
I'll have learned my lesson well
By the time (By the time)
I get to heaven (I get to heaven)
Boy the stories I will tell

By the time I get to heaven
I will know what makes a man
Yes by the time I get to heaven
That's when I will understand

By the time I get to heaven
I get to heaven
I'm gonna cry cry cry cry cry

When I get to heaven
When I get to heaven
When I'm gonna cry

Ooo yeah yeah
Cry cry cry cry

By the time (...)

By the time I'll be gettin' up to heaven...

When I get to heaven
When I get to heaven
When I'm gonna cry

Ooo yeah yeah cry cry cry cry

By the time I'll be gettin' up to heaven...

When I get to heaven
When I get to heaven
When I'm gonna cry (cry)

Ooo yeah yeah cry (cry) cry (cry) cry (cry) cry (cry)

Yeah yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah

Cry...
