Nanci Griffith - Heaven Lyrics

I think I'll go to Heaven
And there I will lay me down
Leave all the pain behind me
I'll bury it in the ground
And maybe they'll talk about me
I pray it won't be lies
I think I'll go to Heaven
Heaven is in your eyes

I think I'll go to Heaven
I heard it's peaceful there
They don't allow your troubles
Everyone's had their share
And if I can be someone who
Never needs a disguise
Maybe I'll go to Heaven
'Cause Heaven is in your eyes

People in Heaven
Never look back
Higher and higher
The past fades to black

I think I'll go to Heaven
I'll sail on into the night
I'll watch as I set my soul free
Watch as my heart takes flight
Maybe I am too simple
And maybe I am too wise
Maybe I'll go to Heaven
'Cause Heaven is in your eyes
