I Want To Go To Heaven

Texas · The BBC Sessions [2007]

You know I can't tell the truth

Cause all I do is lie

I feel like I'm laughing all the time

But all I do is cry

I wanna go to heaven

Yeh I wanna go to heaven

But I don't wanna die

I gave you it all child

But I, I paid for that

You walked away from me

Yeh you turned your back

I wanna go to heaven

Yeh I wanna go to heaven

But I don't wanna die

I'll take what you can give me

I'll use all I can use

Yeh I'm sleeping with my worries now

I've nothin else to lose

Yeh I wanna go to heaven

Lord I wanna go to heaven

but I don't wanna die
