Lyrics
Place Behind the Sun
Take this soul, it's all filled up with love
As my life's good work on earth is done
Point me down that road, that leads me towards the One
Where I'll take my place behind the sun.
Chorus:
There's a light inside of me
I know will always shine
Far beyond the deepest darkest edge of time
I got friends and family, they'll be waiting there for me...
As I take my place behind the sun.
See my star, shining in the sky
It's the newest, brightest, blinking one
From this view, I can always check on you
From my bright new home behind the sun.
Chorus
Bridge:
Across that golden paved roadway
Smiling faces line the sides
Waving welcome home it's this way
Where you'll feel no more pain inside
Years from now, when you've gone old and gray
And your memory fades of all you've done
I'll be waiting, when you step through my door
And we'll find your place behind the sun.
Chorus
