Toni Childs - Heaven's Gate Lyrics
A man I met in my youthCame to me in the light of truthA beautiful dream that wasTill he died one rainy fallThere I was a child brideWidowed at ninteen, defiedNever would I let him goGo to the place that heaven knowsOn the evening of his deathMy shoulders felt a brushing breathCold were his hands on my breastThe man that I loved and put to restHe came to me and held me closeWe danced til dawn in the early snowThere I felt him cry and cryIll never leave, leave your sideOh the madnessThis town thinks Im madSixty years, has it been a dreamThis man Im haunted by, I seeIm eighty years and on my bedAwaiting death, that final breathHe sits by and looks to meSoon you will come and be with meNow I feel all warm insideAs I leave this mortal body behindSeems it is eternals wayWere waltzing into heavens gate
