Heaven Will Be Near Me

Michelle Tumes

Evening fills the crimson sky

another day is leaving

and I think of you.

Waves roll in the afternoon

they echo in the rising moon,

and I think of you.



Chorus:

And I say, oh, Lord,

I think of you.

Heaven will be near me

when I think of you.

And I say, oh, Lord,

I think of you.

Heaven will be near me

when I think of you.



Families roam along the shore

their laughter travels through my soul,

and I think of you.

Lovers watch the evening sky

they whisper as the wind goes by

and I think of you.



Repeat Chorus



There's fire in my soul,

and there's healing in your eyes.

I just want to fly in your arms.

If ever I grow cold,

I want to realize

Heaven will be near me

when I think of you.

Heaven will be near me

when I think of you.



Heaven will be near me

Heaven will be near me

Heaven will be near me

when I think of you.
