Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can't deal, it's so unfair
[Chorus]
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven is so far away
And it feels
Yeah, it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away
[Verse 2]
Leaving flowers on your grave
To show that I still care
Black roses and Hail Marys
Can't bring back what's taken from me
[PreChorus]
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
And if I could trade
I would
[Chorus]
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven is so far away
And it stings
Yeah, it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that you've gone away
[Chorus]
Gone away
Gone away
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh
Yeah, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-oh, yeah
[Bridge]
I'll save your soul
Whoa, yeah, yeah, ooh
[PreChorus]
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
Oh, please let me trade
I would
[Chorus]
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven is so far away
And it feels
Yeah, it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away
[Chorus]
Gone away
Gone away
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh
Yeah, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-oh, yeah
Well, ooh
Yeah, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-oh, yeah
