Come To Heaven
Basia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sitting forever, looking at heaven
Wanting it so much
A born worrier, you better wake up to your heart
Or you'll break it, forsake it

I can't stand by and let you ruin it
We've come so far to be turned down now
I'm on your side, I'm a friend
To be certain isn't easy anyway

Come to heaven
I'm waiting, but tomorrow never comes
Come to heaven
Now or never, just take it
Oh baby, you only have to try it once

Wanting a miracle, getting too cynical
Taking it too far
I won't carry you
You've got to find out for yourself
Like I did, be decided

I can't stand by and let you ruin it
We've come so far to be turned down now
I'm on your side, I'm your friend
To be certain isn't easy anyway

Come to heaven
I'm waiting, but tomorrow never comes
Come to heaven
Now or never, just take it
Oh baby you only have to try it once

Now or never may be forever
Only now we could be together
No time for being clever
Gonna stay with you whatever
Let's embark on this endeavour
Baby it's now or never




Come to heaven
Oh baby you only have to try it once
