Intro: Well, it's been real nice living way up here In paradise, over the atmosphere But I can't stay long, gotta make my way I'm leaving Hea - ven today You see the world is dark and it needs a light I'm gonna hang a star in the eastern sky So everybody's gonna know where I touch down I'm leaving Hea - ven right now I'm gonna walk around that broken Earth Trading in these streets of gold So if you ever wonder how much you're worth You should know That you're the reason why I'm leaving Heaven Ain't gonna be no kingdom, ain't gonna be no crown Just a little old manger, in a little old town But it'll do just fine for this humble King I'm leaving Heaven let all the angels sing I'm gonna walk around that broken Earth Trading in these streets of gold So if you ever wonder how much you're worth You should know You're the reason why I'm leaving Heaven And when my time comes to an end I'll lay down my life like a truest friend And when I get back home, I'm gonna make some room So, don't you worry, 'cause I'm coming back for you And you will say goodbye to that broken Earth You're gonna walk on streets of gold And if you ever wonder what my love is worth Well you should know That I'm the reason you'll be seeing Heaven Oh, you're the reason why I'm leaving Heaven I'm leaving Heaven
