Lyric

Running wild on cherry streets

Paper crowns and skipping beats

Voices rising to the blue

Every laugh feels born anew

We were dancing in the glow

Hearts too young to ever know

That this moment, soft and wide

Was heaven — on the other side

Heaven — where the children play

In a field of light and day

We were gold and we were small

But we had it all

Heaven — in the songs we knew

In the sky so warm and true

Still I hear the echo clear

You were always near

Wooden boards and whispered names

Pawn to dream, forget the games

I was just a child then too

Building skies from what we drew

Every breeze was just a sign

Of a world that once was mine

Now I see it, soft and plain

Heaven’s just a spring again

Heaven — where the children play

In a field of light and day

We were gold and we were small

But we had it all

Heaven — in the songs we knew

In the sky so warm and true

Still I hear the echo clear

You were always near

It never left — it’s in the sound

In every blossom breaking ground

We’re still there — not far behind

A younger us we’ve yet to find

Heaven — where we used to be

In the light that set us free

Even now, I close my eyes

And see the skies

Heaven — not above, but here

With each breath, it reappears

We were children, we were wise

Living in the skies
