Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If heaven was an hour is would be twilight
When the fireflies start their dancin' on the lawn
And supper's on the stove and mama's laughin'
And everybody's workin' day is done
[Verse 2]
If heaven was a town it would be my town
Oh, on a summer day in 1985
And everything I wanted was out there waitin'
And everyone I loved was still alive
[Verse 3]
Don't cry a tear for me now, baby
There comes a time we all must say goodbye
And if that's what heaven's made of
You know I, I ain't afraid to die
[Verse 4]
If heaven was a pie it would be cherry
So cool and sweet and heavy on the tongue
And just one bite would satisfy your hunger
And there'd always be enough for everyone
[Verse 5]
If heaven was a train it sure would be a fast one
That could take this weary traveler 'round the bend
If heaven was a tear it'd be my last one
An you'd be in my arms again
[Verse 6]
Don't cry a tear for me now, baby
There comes a time we all must say goodbye
And if that's what heaven's made of
You know I, I ain't afraid to die
Yeah, if that's what heaven's made of
You know I, I ain't afraid to die
