I'm waiting for my visit,
they'll fill this room with flowers and all
They'll put on their biggest smiles,
but only for a while

If only I could help it
If only mercy'd be on my side
I wouldn't have to die
And my family wouldn't cry

But the pain is getting far too strong
And the medicine won't hold it for long
It's getting closer
So I'm waiting for someone to come
To come and take my soul where it belongs
But no one's coming no one

Chorus:
So I'm calling heaven now
I'm calling heaven now
Calling heavens hand
So heaven help

I try to find the answer
I try to find the reason why I
I'm leaving them all behind
But there's something that I will find

The blood's still running through my heart
But my hairs are slowly falling apart
And I just can't take it
So I'm waiting for someone to come
To come and take my soul where it belongs
But noone's coming no one

So I'm calling heaven now
I'm calling heaven now
Calling heavens hand, so heaven help

Chorus:
Yes, I'm calling...

I see it in their faces
They know I will be leaving tonight
But somewhere down the line
I'm sur we'll meet again
Somewhere down the line
I'm sure we'll meet again
