Lyrics

One Sunday morning after church
The preacher was shaking hands
A little boy walked up and said
"Can I please talk to you, preacher man?"
He said, "My daddy left my mama and me
And it's been a couple years
And my mama's boyfriend don't like me much
Especially after a couple of beers
Sometimes when he hits me and I close my eyes real tight
And I wish that place you always talk about
Was real with all my might"

Is Heaven real?
'Cause I can't wait to go (I can't wait to go)
I can't wait to know how Heaven feels (How Heaven feels)
Is there a place
Where there's no more pain or dyin'? (No more pain or dyin')
No more need for cryin' 'cause I can't wait ('Cause I can't wait)
Is Heaven a real place?

And well, the preacher man didn't know what to say
And before the little boy turned and walked away
The preacher said, "Son, would you like to pray?"
Right then the little boy hit his knees
And he cried out, "Lord, help me please
'Cause I don't know how much more pain I can take"
And he looked up with them tears in his eyes
And he said, "Preacher man, I don't wanna die
But I just wanna know if there's a better place"
Is Heaven real?
'Cause I can't wait to go (I can't wait to go)
I can't wait to know how Heaven feels (How Heaven feels)
Is there a place
Where there's no more pain or dyin'? (No more pain or dyin')
No more need for cryin' 'cause I can't wait ('Cause I can't wait)
Is Heaven a real place?

Later on past midnight
The preacher man got a call
Little boy's in a hospital doin' bad
And the mama's boyfriend's runnin' from the law
When the preacher walked in the boy's hospital room
The little boy whispered, "Can you see him too?
There's an angel standin' right beside you, preacher man"

Now I know Heaven's real
And I can't wait to get there (I can't wait to get there)
I can't wait to know how Heaven feels (How Heaven feels)
I'm going to a place
Where there's no more pain or dyin' (No more pain or dyin')
Preacher man, why you cryin'?
'Cause I can't wait ('Cause I can't wait)
'Cause Heaven's a real place
Now I know Heaven's a real place
Heaven's a real place
