A Place Nearby - Lene Marlin

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
