But the streets are paved with gold
And all the lights were turned down low
And I know I won't awaken, it's a dream that can last
And no one wondered or had to go
There is a better life for me someday
Out on the corner the angels say
I feel like I died and went to Heaven
I saw a young girl who didn't die
But the streets are paved with gold
I saw a glimmer from in her eye
I feel like I died and went to Heaven
The cupboards are bare
I saw the distance, I saw the past
The cupboards are bare
