Heaven's Door

© 2018 Shawn Gilley

Verse 1
My heart has been broken by more than just women
I’ve lived with a pain that most can’t imagine
I’ve spent too much time praying for the end

But in life I have found that hell’s all around me
And it takes a while to see beauty in surroundings 
I find salvation in love and kindness from friends

Chorus
Some days I don’t know how I’m still here
Ive gathered up minutes and turned them to years
And maybe I can bargain God for several more
So far I’ve kept a foot out of heaven’s door

Verse 2
When the walls start closing in all around me
I close my eyes and picture good memories
And sometimes that’s not enough to calm me down

But I’ve seen that in some of my darkest moments
​My love has been there with me just holding
My hand when I cry and can’t make out a sound


Bridge
I promise that there’ll come a day that I’m not very strong
Thankfully I’ve taken time to write down this song
