Seven seconds to 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


I sense this time I may have changed
But one this still remains

I'm torn and the hate still lingers
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 fortune?

Have I been blinded by regret?
Redemption 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
