Heaven's Gate

As midnight draws its steely shades

And the boystown girls go on parade

My tattoo she's a kiss away

In the creole town it's another day

Tears of rage and tears of pain

We're two lovers called 'em different ways

No redemption no remorse

But this love drives a deadly course



* i can't wait for you

Heaven's gate won't wait

I can't wait for you

'cause heaven's gate won't wait



So hold me close, don't let go

With one last kiss, we'll never know

What should have, could have, might have been

We're just chasin' one more dream

I can hear the mardi gras

From my hotel window it seems to far

As daylight creeps through the shades

I can see the price we paid



* repeat



[instrumental]



* repeat twice
