The Long Run

If Heaven was a mile away
You know I would break through the gates, yeah
Too bad that Heaven ain’t a mile away
'Cause I’d see your face every day, yeah
If Heaven was a mile away
My Uber bill would get crazy
I’d catch a ride with a stranger, I wouldn’t care for the danger
If Heaven was a mile away
I’d be with you
It’s like learning how to run
Some people run fast, some people run slow
But you know goal was the long run
And you know that I won’t be ready to fly
If I’m only just learning how to run
Some people run fast, some people run slow
But you know goal was the long run
But I know that I’m still running
Catch you on the fly (Oh, oh)
When it’s all said and done
The same goodbye, catch you on the fly
Guess I’m still learning how to run
If Heaven was a mile away
You know I’d be on my way, you know I’d be on it
I’d probably ask God to stay on holidays
On your birthdays, those be the worst days
In the worst case, I could see you Thursdays
I could do it, I’ll be taking off a work day
But what is working on, if what you’re working for
Just won’t come back to you, if you only knew
That if Heaven was a mile away
I’d be with you (Oh, oh, oh)
It’s like learning how to run
Some people run fast, some people run slow
But you know goal was the long run
And you know that I won’t be ready to fly
If I’m only just learning how to run
Some people run fast, some people run slow
But you know goal was the long run
But I know that I’m still running
Catch you on the fly (Oh, oh)
When it’s all said and done
The same goodbye, catch you on the fly
Guess I’m still learning how to run
