If heaven was an hour, it'd be twilight

When the fireflies start dancin on the lawn

And supper's on the stove and Mamma's laughin'

And everybody's workin' day is done



If heaven was a town, it'd be my town

On a summer day in 1985

And everything I wanted was out there waiting

And everyone I loved was still alive



Don't cry a tear for me now baby

There comes a time we must all say goodbye

And if that's what heavens made of

You know I aint afraid to die



If heaven was a pie, it'd be cherry

Cool and sweet and heavy on your tongue

And just one bite would satisfy your hunger

And there'd always be enough for everyone



If heaven was a train, it'd be a fast one

To take this weary traveler 'round the bend

And if heaven was a tear, it'd be my last one

And you'd be in my arms again



(Repeat Chorus)
