[Verse 1] Where do we go when we die I ask But the sky stays quiet No promise carved in stone Just a beating heart Holding on I’m reaching up for heaven But I’m honest I’m scared inside If that gate don’t lead me to you I’d rather be cast aside [Chorus] If you ain’t there There is no afterlife to me I’d bust those gates wide open Till I see you standing free I can’t spend eternity In a place you’ll never be If you ain’t there Then heaven ain’t heaven to me [Verse 2] If they lay you in the shadows I will tear through every wall Kick the doors of every kingdom Just to answer when you call I will search the earth to find you Every grave Every hidden room Death can’t hold us apart When my soul is tied to you [Chorus] If you ain’t there There is no afterlife to me I’d bust those gates wide open Till I see you standing free I can’t spend eternity In a place you’ll never be If you ain’t there Then heaven ain’t heaven to me [Bridge] You were meant for me I know Written deep in my bones Hell can’t hold what’s meant to be Our love An eternal flame We will soar through the galaxies Same breath Same name [Chorus] If you ain’t there There is no afterlife to me I’d break through fire and thunder Till your face is all I see I can’t spend eternity In a place you’ll never be If you ain’t there Then heaven ain’t heaven to me If you ain’t there Then heaven ain’t heaven to me
