Song Description

a song about a near death experience

Lyrics

Floating over my body, drifting in space
Eyes closed empty and lifeless, I reach for my face
I don?t know where my hands have gone
I can?t feel them at all
I speak to fiends that are gathering round
They pay no heed to my call
I go on, I go on

Golden light in a tunnel, I enter in
Strange warmth surrounds and engulfs me,
Ethereal beings at perceptions edge
Voices murmur and moan
A bright kaleidoscope spinning found
Draws me into it?s own
I go on, I go on

Sunshine over the meadow, laughter rings out
Young child runs through the grasses, no fear or doubt
Familiar images of my life
Times I?d almost forgot
Paths I?ve taken and turns I?ve made
Scenes of those I did not
go on, I go on

Then I sense I am not alone
I know now that I am one
With the presence that I?ve called God

Faces gather around me, I open my eyes
Tears fall I feel the embraces, of those left behind
Somehow everything seems so clear
I smile at voices I hear
I have no worries I have no fear
I know that with my God near
I go on, I go on
I go on, I go on
I go on, I go on
I go on, I go on Reaching for Heaven?s door
