A Dream That Can Last

I feel like I died and went to heaven

The cupboards are bare but the streets are paved with gold

I saw a young girl who didn't die

I saw a glimmer from in her eye

I saw the distance, I saw the past

And I know I won't awaken

It's a dream that can last

I feel like I died and went to heaven

The cupboards are bare but the streets are paved with gold

I saw a young girl who didn't die

I saw a glimmer from in her eye

I saw the distance, I saw the past

And I know I won't awaken

It's a dream that can last

I feel like I died and went to heaven

The cupboards are bare but the streets are paved with gold

And all the lights were turned down low

And no one wondered or had to go

Out on the corner, the angels say

There is a better life for me someday

I feel like I died and went to heaven

The cupboards are bare but the streets are paved with gold
