Heaven is for every one, if you're old or if you're young Baby, you can't kiss the past goodbye When I saw her in the night cafe, just near by the Champs-Elysees She looked so sad, she breaks my heart She told me, she will take the car and drive to an unknown star She falls in love with someone else, not me And I know my tears will never dry, when I heard her say just, goodbye I never said she's guilty, guilty for my love.

I don't wonder anymore what I'll tell God when I go to heaven when we sit in the chairs under the tree, outside the city........I'll tell these things to God, and he'll laugh, I think and he'll remind me of the parts I forgot, the parts that were his favorite. We'll sit and remember my story together, and then he'll stand and put his arms around me and say, "well done," and that he liked my story. And my soul won't be thirsty anymore. Finally he'll turn and we'll walk toward the city, a city he will have spoken into existence a city built in a place where once there'd been nothing.
Donald Miller
