Heaven Heals - The Normals

Goodbyes are never easy, goodbyes never tire

Making me feel guilty, being dragged through time

You were standing in my doorway as the seconds raced the snails

Because you wouldn’t let me leave you, without driving those last few nails

I guess that’s how it works here

But Heaven holds a promise for every friend we’ve left behind

Time is not the ruler that I thought he was

Someday soon we’ll wake up, wake to see each other running

Arms open, all is forgiven when Heaven heals

It’s been a few weeks since that message that I left to feed the lie

That communication’s open when we both know that it’s died

I wish that were the nobler thing

But Heaven holds a promise for every friend we’ve left behind

And time is not the ruler that I thought he was

And someday soon we’ll wake up, wake to see each other running

Arms open, all is forgiven when Heaven heals, Heaven heals

It cannot be right just to leave you

God it’s just too hard to stick around

Maybe herein lies the place where grace starts

That when we’re both lost then God is found, God is found

But Heaven holds a promise for every friend we’ve left behind

And time is not the ruler that I thought he was

Someday soon we’ll wake up, wake to see each other running

Arms open, all is forgiven, arms open, all is forgiven

Arms open, all is forgiven when Heaven heals, Heaven heals, Heaven heals

Oh when Heaven heals, that’s right yeah
