Within Temptation

Seven seconds till the rise
Can't believe I'm still alive
And heaven was waiting for me
I thought this would be the end
But I know you'll understand
All that is keeping me here

I dream of the stairway to the skies
My angel is coming down from heaven to take me
I reach out but then you fade away
And now that you call for me
Know that I'm only one step behind

My senses tell me I have changed
But one thing still remains
I'm torned in hate, still aching
I slowly start to realize
We won't reunite
I still have to march on through

I dream of the stairway to the skies
My angel is coming down from heaven to take me
I reach out but then you fade away
And now that you call for me
Know that I'm only one step behind

Is it a curse or a virtue?
Have it been game that I regret?
traditional ways (??)
My soul is at stake
Will I find the stairway to the skies in the end?

I dream of the stairway to the skies
My angel is coming down from heaven to take me
I reach out but then you fade away
And now that you call for me
Know that I'm only one step behind
Know that I'm only one step behind
