  • When I was four, I fell off my bike
    But you told me I'd be okay
    When I was five, you were by my side
    When mama was far away
    When I was ten, you were my best friend
    When no one else came to play
    If anyone hits you, you hit back harder
    That's what you'd always say

    And you'd say, "Oh"

    It's been a long, long day
    Are we in Heaven, Heaven, Heaven?
    'Cause I don't feel pain
    I guess that this is Heaven, Heaven
    And, if you're far away
    We're still together, 'gether, 'gether
    And if I never prayed
    I guess that we're in Heaven, Heaven

    As we got older, you never smiled
    And I know it's because of him
    Oh, you carried that pain more than any child should
    Buried under your skin
    Remember that time when I lost my voice
    And they said I would never sing?
    Well, now you've got a kid, I'm with Ed on tour
    In cities I've never been

    And you'd say, "Oh"
    You'd say, "Hold my hand, I'll be your brother wherever you go"

    It's been a long, long day
    Are we in Heaven, Heaven, Heaven?
    'Cause I don't feel pain
    I guess that this is Heaven, Heaven
    And, if you're far away
    We're still together, 'gether, 'gether
    And if I never prayed
    I guess that we're in Heaven, Heaven

    Now we've grown up and you've built that love
    You've got your own family
    And maybe one day when I build my own
    I'll remember you said to me

    It's been a long, long day
    Are we in Heaven, Heaven, Heaven?
    'Cause I don't feel pain
    I guess that this is Heaven, Heaven
    And, if you're far away
    We're still together, 'gether, 'gether
    And if I never prayed
    I guess that we're in Heaven, Heaven

    Oh (Heaven)
    Oh (Heaven, Heaven, Heaven)
    Oh (Heaven)
