A Dream That Can Last

I feel like I died and went to heaven The cupboards are bare but the streets are paved with gold I saw a young girl who didn't die I saw a glimmer from in her eye I saw the distance, I saw the past And I know I won't awaken It's a dream that can last I feel like I died and went to heaven The cupboards are bare but the streets are paved with gold I saw a young girl who didn't die I saw a glimmer from in her eye I saw the distance, I saw the past And I know I won't awaken It's a dream that can last I feel like I died and went to heaven The cupboards are bare but the streets are paved with gold And all the lights were turned down low And no one wondered or had to go Out on the corner, the angels say There is a better life for me someday I feel like I died and went to heaven The cupboards are bare but the streets are paved with gold
