Heaven's Gate

You said that life is not as easy as ABC That it might burst anytime like a balloon You told me everything I should learn But you never taught me how to let go. You were the river where my life flows You were the smile that lights my face You were the voice who told me ]not to let go and just keep going Now you are the soul; I’m crying for As you strum your guitar And sing your favorite hymn I reminisced our days And all the dreams we gathered The leaves have withered But your flowers boom eternally For you lived your life happily So I hope you rest peacefully May the portals of heaven open up for you Thought this would make me really blue But then I know you are in a safer place Where you would surely receive God’s grace Let me give you one last kiss It hurts to end up like this But it’s not yet my time to go For you were summoned all alone But before you go Promise me one last thing When my invitation arrives Please wait for me in . . . Heaven’s Gate
