At the Gates of Heaven

At The Gates Of Heaven

(Dennis Small / Christian Nóvé)

The smiles we shared - Are now disappointed frowns
The tenderness we shared - Are now just silent sounds

And a little lonely wind cries!

The nights we had - Seemed always to last
The future we wanted - Is lost inside another past

At the gates of heaven - We were standing there
The dreams we had - Vanished into the air
At the gates of heaven - For hearts that don’t care
Shadows cry - Somehow we lost us there

I didn’t put the coffin in the grave
I can claim and that is my big fault

I have my barricades - And you have your wall
A crystal dream shatters - As two souls fall

And a little lonely wind cries!

Peace of mind - Is never easy to find
All things must pass - The future broken glass.
