I realize I've been sitting here for quite a while Just thinking about heaven I wonder what it feels like Just being the presence of God I can't comprehend it I can't even comprehend time So I'm waiting, watchfully waiting For that wonderful, marvelous day Coz I've been dreaming of eternity, watching the skies Waiting for the day when I can gaze into my maker's eyes I can't wait, can't wait, good thing I'm going soon Only a lifetime away Only a lifetime away I think about the streets of gold And the mansion you've prepared for me And I remember all the people who Are not gonna go there My heart is heavy now I want to show them the way I just want them to be there Be there with me Coz I've been dreaming of eternity, watching the skies Waiting for the day when I can gaze into my maker's eyes I can't wait, can't wait, good thing I'm going soon Only a lifetime away Oh A lifetime, a lifetime A lifetime away Soon It's soon, it's soon I'm dreaming, dreaming, dreaming A lifetime, a lifetime, a lifetime away A lifetime, a lifetime, only a lifetime away Oh Only a lifetime away
