Sometimes This Is Heaven to Me

Now more than ever
I feel Heaven pulling at me
My bags are all packed
But I'm not quite ready to leave
Oh, I'm not afraid
And I'm not scared
You know, it's hard to describe
I just wish the whole world
Could feel what I'm feeling inside

'Cause when I hold the hand
Of an old trusted friend
This is Heaven
Oh, talkin' 'bout Heaven
And when I see a smile
On the face of a child
This is Heaven to me
Still talkin' 'bout heaven
So, Lord, if you don't mind
I'd like a just little more time
'Cause therе're songs
That I still want to sing
There is laughtеr and tears
But I sure like it here
Sometimes this is Heaven to me

I'm caught in between this world
And the world still to come
And I'm tired from the race
That I've tried to faithfully run
No, I don't belong to this world
I'm just passing through
But don't tell me goodbye
'Cause I've still got some livin' to do

'Cause when I hold the hand
Of an old trusted friend
This is Heaven
Ah, talkin' 'bout Heaven
And when I see a smile
On the face of a child
This is Heaven to me
Still talkin' 'bout heaven
So, Lord, if you don't mind
I'd like a just little more time
'Cause there're songs
That I still want to sing
There is laughter and tears
But I sure like it here
Sometimes this is Heaven to me

There is laughter and tears
But I sure like it here
Eyes have not seen
Ears have not heard
What God has in store for His children
But sometimes this is Heaven to me
Heaven to me
