Leaving Heaven Lyrics by Matthew West Feat. Vince Gill

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
