The Zombies - Heaven's Gate lyrics

And now heaven's gate is open wide For you have put a light inside me I can see that heaven is near Heaven is here It took so long to see it Perhaps I looked too hard Sometimes it was just easier to take another path The choices made it simple It was shallower but safe Time and time again I chose to go the easy way But I believed it that someday somehow you would find me here I could feel it so near And now heaven's gate is open wide For you have put a light inside me I can see that heaven is near You gave away a waiting heart an open gate A journey sent to celebrate and when we touch all heaven appears Heaven is here The second that I saw you it all fell into place For I could read a thousand years of friendship in your face Time that runs in circles and spins us round so fast But time has stopped for us right here to let us meet at last And I believed it I knew that it would feel like coming home I could feel it right here And now heaven's gate is open wide For you have put a light inside me I can see that heaven is near You gave away a waiting heart an open gate A journey sent to celebrate and when we touch all heaven appears Heaven is here Heaven's gate is open wide I can take a step inside to find my dreams alive in your arms Forget the doubt forget the fear for heaven is so very near It only takes one step and we're there heaven is here
