For Me This Is Heaven

  • The first star I see may not be a star
    We can't do a thing but wait so let's wait
    For one more
    And the time's such clumsy time
    Deciding if it's time

    I'm careful but not sure how it goes
    You can lose yourself in your courage
    When the time we have now ends,
    When the big hand goes round again,
    Can you still feel the butterflies?
    Can you still hear the last goodnight?

    And the mindless comfort grows
    When I'm alone with my big plans
    And this is what she said gets her through it
    If I don't let myself be happy now then when?
    If not now?
    When the time we have now ends,
    And when the big hand goes round again,

    Can you still feel the butterflies?
    Can you still hear the last goodnight?
    I close my eyes and believe

    That wherever you are, Angel
    For when the time we have now ends
    And when the big hand goes round again
    Can you still feel the butterflies?
    Can you still hear the last goodnight? Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
