Lyrics: Heaven’s Waiting
Album: Paid Vacation
Artist: Richard Marx
 

There is no understanding in this hostile age
Sometimes i feel just like a rat locked in a cage
It’s hard to live beyond the walls
It ain’t no life at all
But don’t you tear it down

Chorus:
Take your chances, i’ll take mine
Chasing thunder is only wasted time
Got no reason to walk that line
Heaven’s waiting if i can make it home tonight

And with the years i’ve found a faith that gets me by
It shows me the truth in a hurricane of lies
My baby’s left a light for me
That’s really all i need
They won’t bring me down

Repeat chorus

Aimlessly rushing leaves you with nothing
You need some loving to make you feel alive
In less than a moment, life can be stolen
I know where i’m going, gotta get me there tonight

I’m holding on to what i can
Like any other lucky man
Love won’t strike me, love won’t sell me out

Repeat chorus
