  • I can see the tears upon your face, no hiding place
    And you're afraid that soon I will be gone, but time will still go on
    You're searching for the answers you can find, all in good time

    What's the worst thing that can happen,
    If they say my time is through
    Can they take away the love,
    Or they years I've shared with you
    What's the worst thing that can happen,
    That's the worst that they can do

    Threaten me with Heaven, it's all they can do
    Threaten me with Heaven, if they want to
    Threaten me with Heaven, I believe that it's true
    Threaten me with Heaven, I'll be waiting on you

    I hear angels through the window pane, calling my name
    Someday when they carve my name in stone, I won't be, I won't be alone
    If by chance a miracle appears, I'll dry up your tears

    What's the worst thing that can happen,
    If they say my time is through
    Can they take away the love,
    Or the years I've shared with you
    What's the worst thing that can happen,
    What's the worst that they can do

    Threaten me with Heaven, it's all they can do
    Threaten me with Heaven, if they want to
    Threaten me with Heaven, I believe that it's true
    Threaten me with Heaven, I'll be waiting on you

    What's the worst thing that can happen,
    What's the worst that they can do
    Threaten me with Heaven, that's all they can do
    Threaten me with Heaven, ooh, I'll be waiting on you

    Threaten me with Heaven
