If heaven was an hour, it would be twilight When the fireflies start their dancin' on the lawn And supper's on the stove and mamma's laughin' And everybody's workin' day is done. If heaven was a town it would be my town Oh, on a summer day in 1985 And everything I wanted was out there waitin' And everyone I loved was still alive. Chorus: Don't cry a tear for me now baby There comes a time we all must say goodbye And if that's what heaven's made of You know I ain't afraid to die. If heaven was a pie it would be cherry So cool and sweet and heavy on your tongue And just one bite would satisfy your hunger And there'd always be enough for everyone. If heaven was a train it sure would be a fast one That could take this weary travler 'round the bend And if heaven was a tear it'd be my last one And you'd be in my arms again. Chorus: Don't cry a tear for me now baby There comes a time we all must say goodbye And if that's what heaven's made of You know I ain't afraid to die. Yeah, if that's what heaven's made of You know I ain't afraid to die.
