At the door to heaven
Looked up in the sky
thousand stars, but no light
then you smiled, thin as thread
looked at me, while I bled
Was that you, or just your creation
what do I know, I make speculation
Soon you came, in the form of light
I looked up, you were so bright
was that you, or just your creation
what do I know, I'm just a human
I flew out, in search of you
the more I learned, the less I knew
But now I know, one thing right
you are the one, who made that light
the sun and the moon
and the stars so bright
you are my love
I am your life
Soon I'll find you, my only Lord
Even if it means, walking on swords
No one will stop me, not one man
While you've my back, no one can.
