[Verse 1]
Don't beg, don't cry to your children
Don't ever cry to your papa
Don't try to beg to your people
Don't ever cry to your mama

[Chorus]
Heaven is too far away tonight
Heaven is too far away
Tonight

[Verse 2]
Don't laugh, don't scream to your children
Don't ever cry to your sister
Don't talk, don't play with the children
'Cause you ain't gonna get my heart

[Chorus]
Heaven is too far away tonight
Heaven is too far away
Tonight

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Heaven is too far away tonight
Heaven is too far away
Tonight
