i entered the room
sat by your bed all through the night
i watched your daily fight
i hardly knew
the pain was almost more than i could bear
and still i hear
your last words to me.

heaven is a place nearby
so i won´t be so far away.
and if you try and look for me
maybe you´ll find me someday.
heaven is a place nearby
so there´s no need to say goodbye
i wanna ask you not to cry
i´ll always be by your side.
you just faded away
you spread your wings you had flown
away to something unknown
wish i could bring you back.
you´re always on my mind
about to tear myself apart.
you have your special place in my heart.

always heaven is a place nearby
so i won´t be so far away.
and if you try and look for me
maybe you´ll find me someday.
heaven is a place nearby
so there´s no need to say goodbye
i wanna ask you not to cry
i´ll always be by your side.

and even when i go to sleep
i still can hear your voice
and those words
i never will forget
