A Place Nearby - Lene Marlin


I entered the room, and 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

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.
