Heaven - Orleans

In the beginning, there was light

Man and woman lived in paradise

But with the apple, they both fell

And cast us all beneath the serpent’s spell

Books of knowledge from the wise

Say they’re right before our very eyes

There is still a garden here

One that’s free of greed and pain and fear

Heaven could be here for us today

How on earth could you turn me away?

Won’t you go with me?

Help me find the key

How much longer will I have to wait

Here at Heaven’s gate?

You say you’ve got to find yourself

Before you share your love with someone else

Another time, another place

But we’re not giving time and love to waste

Heaven could be here for us today

How on earth could you turn me away?

Won’t you go with me?

Help me find the key

How much longer will you make me wait

Here at Heaven’s gate?

Oh, reason and guidance surround us

Deafness and blindness confound us

Always, your choice paves the way

Heaven could be here for us today

How on earth could you turn me away?

(Don't turn me away)

Won’t you go with me?

(Go with me)

Help me find the key (Find the key)

How much longer will we have to wait

Here at Heaven’s gate?

Heaven could be here for us today (It could be here)

How on earth could you turn me away?

(Don't turn me away)

Won’t you go with me?

Help me find the key

How much longer will I have to wait

Here at Heaven’s gate?
