Lyrics:

Quarter after seven, got a phone call

Telling me to get here quick

Said your girl is in a bad situation

They don't know if she's gonna make it

As I hurry to be by her side

I ask a thousand times, why oh why

There's no rhyme or reason in my life

With you lying here this way

I'd give anything just to trade places with you

So I'm begging heaven down on my knees

To help you make it through

Tell me can heaven wait

Can heaven wait just one more night

Tell me what it's gonna take

To keep you with me in my life

Giving up the shame of my other life

Now I'm seeing things in a whole new light

Lord, I vow to change if you just make it right

Can heaven wait one night

Thinking back on times that I've wasted

I should have cherished every day

All the different flavors that I tasted

Can't compare to you, no way

As I reminisce by your side

Tears of guilt are streaming from my eyes

All the things I did that weren't right

Wish I could apologize

I'd give anything if I could trade places with you

So I'm beggin' heaven down on my knees

To help you make it through

Tell me can heaven wait

Can heaven wait just one more night

Tell me what it's gonna take

To keep you with me in my life

I'm gonna stop the world, reverse the time

Do whatever it takes to keep you alive

Heaven has to wait one more day

Baby, take my breath so you can breathe

I need you here so don't you leave

Heaven has to wait

Tell me can heaven wait

Can heaven wait just one more night

Tell me what it's gonna take

To keep you with me in my life

Tell me can heaven wait

Can heaven wait just one more night

Tell me what it's gonna take

To keep you with me in my life
