Make Heaven Wait Lyrics by Wayne Brady

A Long Time Coming

0

I see you smiling everyday
Looking back at me
Like nothing ever changed
I swear I heard you call my name
But in reality, it’s just your picture in a frame
Why am I here without you
When there was so much left for us to do
How could the Angels come so soon…

If I could make heaven wait
I’d find a way
To ask God if he had made some mistake
If he’d save your wings for another day
If only I could…Make heaven wait

All your clothes are hanging up
Not a thing’s been touched
I left it all the same
I wish that I could press rewind
And go back in time
Just to see your face again
Cause I miss you, I need you
I’m so alone without you here with me
You are the reason that I breathe

If I could make heaven wait
I’d find a way
To ask God if he had made some mistake
If he’d save your wings for another day
If only I could…Make heaven wait

Every night I search for your star
In the sky
(asking why, oh why)
Lord knows I would trade in my life for
The chance to say good-bye

Make heaven wait
I’d find a way
To ask God if he had made some mistake
If he’d save your wings for another day
If only I could…Make heaven wait
