If There's a Heaven

If There's a Heaven - Lucinda Williams

When you go you let me know

If there's a heaven out there

When you leave me here to grieve

In pain and despair

I've seen the face of hell

I know that place pretty damn well

But when you go you'll let me know

If there's a heaven out there

On the day you fly away

Far beyond the blue

When you're done

And your run is finally through

I'm forced to let go

There'll be no greater sorrow

On that day you fly away

Far beyond the blue

I'll be lost

When you cross over to the other side

Will my pain be in vain

I found out they lie

When you go I need to know

That what they say is really so

'Cause I'll be lost

When you cross over to the other side

You promise me this

Before you let go of my hand

Before we visit our last kiss

And you are cold and cannot stand

Before it's finally time

And you've taken my sunshine

Will you promise me this

Before you let go of my hand

When you go you let me know

If there's a heaven out there

When you leave me here to grieve

In pain and despair

I've seen the face of hell

I know that place pretty damn well

But when you go you'll let me know

If there's a heaven out there

When you go you let me know

If there's a heaven out there
