Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven

Everybody wants to go to heaven
Everybody wants to go to heaven
Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody, nobody wants to die
Silken, shining shadows on a soothing summer wind
Gently through her hair blows, a whimsical small sad grin
But even in darkening sky now, a glimmer, a glimmer in the stars
Wishing, walking, and a wandering for company, just my guitar
And the wind it blows in my window as I look out
From the road of life that I see all the people going on
Everybody wants to go to heaven
Everybody wants to go to heaven
Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody, nobody wants to die
And I'll sing you my songs in a smoke filled room
Even words from my mind, and they penetrate the gloom
And they go on by
I give a sigh and I wonder why
A voice is pleading and things I'm needing in the deep troubled darkness of the night
Soft and silent foot steps stepping lowered so gently from the line
And the wind it blows in my window as I look out
From the road of life that I see all the people going on
Everybody wants to go to heaven
Everybody wants to go to heaven
Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody, nobody wants to die
Everybody wants to go to heaven
Everybody wants to go to heaven
Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody, nobody wants to die
