Stairway to the Skies Lyrics

Seven seconds till the rise.
Can't believe I'm still alive
And heaven was waiting for me.
I thought this would be the end,
But I know you'll understand
All that is keeping me here.

I dream of a stairway to the skies.
My angel is coming down from heaven to take me.
I reach out but then you fade away.
Whenever you call for me,
Know that I'm only one step behind.

My senses tell me I have changed,
But one thing still remains:
I'm torn and the hate's still aching.
I slowly start to realize
We won't reunite,
I still have to march on through.

I dream of a stairway to the skies.
My angel is coming down from heaven to take me.
I reach out but then you fade away.
Whenever you call for me,
Know that I'm only one step behind.

Is it a curse or a virtue?
Have I been blinded by regret?
Perdition awaits, my soul is at stake.
Will I find a stairway to the skies in the end?

I dream of a stairway to the skies.
My angel is coming down from heaven to take me.
I reach out but then you fade away.
Whenever you call for me,
Know that I'm only one step behind.
Know that I'm only one step behind.
