Save me from this prison
Lord help me get away
Cause only you can save me now
From this misery
I've been lost in my own place
And I'm getting' weary
How far is heaven
And I know that I need to change
My ways of livin'
How far is heaven, Lord can you tell me
I've been locked up way too long
In this crazy world, how far is heaven
And I just keep on prayin' Lord
And Just keep on livin', how far is heaven
Yeah, Lord can you tell me, how far is heaven
Cause I just got to know how far, how far is heaven
Yeah, Lord can you tell me
[translated from Spanish]
(You that's in a higher place
Send me down a blessing)
Cause I know there's a better place
Than this place I'm livin' in, how far is heaven
And I just got to have some faith
And just keep on giving, how far is heaven
Yeah, Lord can you tell me, how far is heaven
Cause I just gotta know how far yeah, how far is heaven
Lord,can you tell me, how far is heaven
Cause I just gotta know how far
I just wanna know how far
