Heaven Can Wait Lyrics

I was livin' for tomorrow
Hangin' on from day to day
Tired of chasin' a dream
That so constantly seemed
To just slip away

Oh, now that I've found a love that's forever
Heaven can wait till then
Oh, at last I can see how sweet love can be
So if it's not too late
Heaven can wait

Life is short, my darlin'
But tomorrow come what may
You are here in my heart
And that's something that no one can take away

Oh, now that I've found a love that's forever
Heaven can wait till then
Oh, at last I can see how sweet love can be
So if it's not too late
Heaven can wait

Oh, now that I've found a love that's forever
Heaven can wait till then
Oh, at last I can see how sweet love can be
So if it's not too late
Heaven can wait

Heaven can wait
Heaven can wait
Heaven can wait

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
