At Heaven's gate

by emma jo_234

Once I knew—what my life was com-ing to…
Once I knew my place
And the-en I met you
All of a sudden the days

Chased me by, let me live
you put my life on hold…
And now we’re here to-ge-ther
at Heaven’s gate

Why didn’t I see
You had the be-est of me
And I’m tryin to live
while cooped up in this cage…

‘Cause time chased me by
and I let me live, though my
Life was on ho-old
And now we’re here to-ge-ther
a-at Hea-ven’s gate.

    It was supposed to be a song…that’s why there are italics in odd places and some words go “a-at,” for example.

    That’s beautiful. Yeah, I guessed it was a song even before the comment, because of the italics and stuff…I’ve never been able to write songs, so I have great respect for those who can.
