Heaven lyrics

I got lost out there in this world
Looking for a brand new way to fall down
It's no urprise that things have gotten worse
And I thank god tha he never let me down

But I didn't have to lie to myself for so long
I didn't have to let myself get so far gone
I didn't have to make the ones I love feel so alone
I didn't have to die to go to heaven
I just had to go home

While I was having the time of my life
I think my soul died a little every day
I always called to say I'm sorry
You said it's ok, but you should be
Through it all you never walked away
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/0-9/3_doors_down/heaven.html ]
But I didn't have to lie to myself for so long
I didn't have to let myself get so far gone
I didn't have to make the ones I love feel so alone
I didn't have to die to go to heaven
I just had to go home
into the arms of an angel
Into the peace I left behind
All I had to do to save my own life
Was to look into your eyes

But I didn't have to lie to myself for so long
I didn't have to let myself get so far gone
I didn't have to make the ones I love feel so alone
I didn't have to die to go to heaven
But I didn't have to lie to myself for so long
I just had to go home
I just had to go home
I just had to go home
