I entered the room Sat by your bed all through the night I watched your daily fight I hardly knew The pain was almost more than I could bear And still I hear Your last words to me
[Chorus]: Heaven is a place nearby So I won't be so far away And if you try and look for me Maybe you'll find me someday Heaven is a place nearby So there's no need to say goodbye I will ask you not to cry I'll always be by your side
You just faded away You spread your wings, you had flown Away to something unknown Wish I could bring you back You're always on my mind About to tear myself apart You have your special place in my heart, always
[Chorus]
And even when I go to sleep I still can hear your voice And those words I never will forget
