When we die, is it just like sleeping?
Does the light mean that it's light like a nap?
Will I dream? Will I get to meet Jesus?
Or like Jesus, will I come right back?
Years go fast
Live each day like it's your last
Mercy's all we ask
'Cause when I cry, I don't just cry
I fold in half
If there's a fear about leaving here
Then a devil you may find
But if love, if love is all there ever was
There'll be peace on the other side
Years go fast
Live each day like it's your last
Me, I wanna go out dancing
'Cause when I die, I know I'm gonna fly
Into an angel's hands
You are loved, you are loved
You are loved
You are loved, you are loved
You are loved
Those before me sang their songs
Musical memories of long days gone
So do I sing along
I'll remember you
You are loved, you are loved
You are loved
You are loved, you are loved
You are loved
You are loved
