04. Leaving Heaven (Feat. Vince Gill)

The Heart of Christmas
by Matthew West

 

Well, it’s been real nice living way up here / In paradise, over
the atmosphere / But I can’t stay long, gotta make my way / I’m
leaving Heaven today // You see the world is dark and it needs a
light / So, I’m gonna hang a star in the eastern sky / So everybody’s
gonna know where I touch down / I’m leaving Heaven right now //
I’m gonna walk around that broken Earth / Trading in these streets
of gold / So if you ever wonder how much you’re worth / You should
know / You’re the reason why I’m leaving Heaven // Ain’t gonna be
no kingdom, ain’t gonna be no crown / Just a little old manger, in a
little old town / But it’ll do just fine for this humble King / I’m leaving
Heaven let all the angels sing // And soon My time will come to an
end // I’ll lay down my life like a truest friend / And when I get back
home, I’m gonna make some room / So, don’t you worry, ‘cause I’m
coming back for you // And you will say goodbye to that broken
Earth / You’re gonna walk on streets of gold / So if you ever wonder
what My love is worth / You should know / I’m the reason you’ll be
seeing Heaven / Oh, you’re the reason why I’m leaving Heaven
