Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies

We don't have the power, but we never say never

 Some are like water, some are like the heat
           D                       E
Some are a melody and some are the beat
          Bm                     D
Sooner or later they all will be gone
          Gbm             E- A
Why don't they stay young?

I don't want to perish like a fading horse
            Bm              D
Years like diamonds in the sun

And diamonds are forever

  So many advantages given up today
         D                 E
So many songs we forgot to play
               Bm                   D
So many dreams swinging out of the blue
          Gbm    E - A
Oh let it come true
