A Place Nearby - Lene Marlin

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.

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 wanna 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 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 wanna ask you not to cry

I’ll always be by your side.

And even when I go to sleep

I still can hear your voice

And those words

I never will forget
