Toni Childs

Heaven's Gate
A man I met in my youth Came to me in the light of truth A beautiful dream that was Till he died one rainy fall There I was a child bride Widowed at ninteen, defied Never would I let him go Go to the place that heaven knows On the evening of his death My shoulders felt a brushing breath Cold were his hands on my breast The man that I loved and put to rest He came to me and held me close We danced til dawn in the early snow There I felt him cry and cry i'll never leave, leave your side Oh the madness This town thinks I'm mad Sixty years, has it been a dream This man I'm haunted by, I see I'm eighty years and on my bed Awaiting death, that final breath Letras de cancionesHe sits by and looks to me "soon you will come and be with me" Now I feel all warm inside As I leave this mortal body behind Seems it is eternal's way We're waltzing into heaven's gate From Letras Mania
