Chris Rea - Tell Me There's a Heaven(2007)

[00:12.87] The little girl, she said to me
[00:18.42] "What are these things that I can see?
[00:23.73] Each night when I come home from school
[00:28.86] When Mama calls me in for tea"
[00:34.40] Oh, every night a baby dies
[00:39.31] And every night a mama cries
[00:44.84] What makes those men do what they do?
[00:49.80] To make that person black and blue
[00:58.44] Grandpa says they're happy now
[01:08.92] They sit with God in paradise
[01:18.98] With Angels' wings and still somehow
[01:29.52] It makes me feel like ice
[01:41.93] Tell me there's a heaven
[01:47.02] Tell me that it's true
[01:52.43] Tell me there's a reason
[01:57.11] Why I'm seeing what I do
[02:02.84] Tell me there's a heaven
[02:08.09] Where all those people go
[02:13.31] Tell me they're all happy now
[02:18.09] Papa, tell me that it's so
[02:23.32]
[02:40.09] So, do I tell her that it's true?
[02:45.35] That there's a place for me and you
[02:50.64] Where hungry children smile and say
[02:55.50] We wouldn't have no other way
[03:01.44] That every painful crack of bones
[03:06.91] Is a step along the way
[03:12.29] Every wrong done is a game plan
[03:17.55] To that great and joyful day
[03:25.82] And I'm looking
[03:28.33] At the father and the son
[03:36.34] And I'm looking
[03:39.19] At the mother and the daughter
[03:46.95] And I'm watching them in tears of pain
[03:52.39] And I'm watching them suffer
[03:57.84] Don't tell that little girl
[04:02.04] Tell me
[04:08.69] Tell me there's a heaven
[04:13.89] Tell me that it's true
[04:19.36] Tell me there's a reason
[04:24.15] Why I'm seeing what I do
[04:30.01] Tell me there's a heaven
[04:35.03] Where all those people go
[04:40.96] Tell me they're all happy now
[04:45.46] Papa, tell me that it's so
[04:50.65]
