Lyrics

Boundaries of time and space, boundaries of fears,
Boundaries of promises kept for all these years,
Boundaries that keep me from the ones I long to know,
But there is a boundless place where you and I will go.

Save a thousand years in heaven for me, I will meet you there.
Time for ev'ry gentle whisper, ev'ry answered prayer.
Maybe time was just too short or my needs were just too great,
But I'll meet you just beyond the eastern gate.

Each of us on diff'rent roads, seeking what is right.
Not all things are possible in this lonely night,
But the land of promises is coming into view,
Land of love and timelessness that I can spend with you.

Save a thousand years in heaven for me, I will meet you there,
Time to mend each broken promise, time to really care.
Maybe life was just too short or I was just too late,
But I'll meet you just beyond the eastern gate.

Save a thousand years in heaven for me, I will meet you there,
Time for every love requited, every answered prayer,
Maybe time was just too short or my needs were just too great,
But I'll meet you just beyond the eastern gate.
Maybe life was just too short, but I will not be late,
I'll meet you just beyond the eastern gate.
