Remember when we first were led to heaven's doornBy the hands of those who showed us something morenTheir arms were open with no strings attachednAnd the words they spoke to us meant so much morenAnd now our lives speak to those behindnWhat do they see on the other sidennDon't shut the door of heavennOn the ones who would believenIf they could see in us the lovenThat they've been looking fornDon't shut the door of heavennnSomewhere in the growing upnSometimes we grow out of touchnWith the tenderness that drew us to the truthnIf we close our minds and lock our hearts up tightnThere's no room for love in what we donAnd now our lives speak to those behindnWhat do they see on the other sidennDon't shut the door of heavennOn the ones who would believenIf they could see in us the lovenThat they've been looking fornDon't shut the door of heavennOn the ones who would believenIf they could see in us the lovenThat they've been looking fornDon't shut the door of heaven
