They tell me that You're building me a mansion in a city where the streets are paved with gold
But if all I'm gonna get is just a mansion
Then forgive me Lord, but I don't want to go
'Cos we've got those down here You know
Oh! And truth be told
I wanna be near You, just near You
So don't go wasting too much space on me
I wanna be near You, just near You
That's all the Heaven I will ever need
I wanna sit so close that I can touch the splinters
That You got for laying Your life down for mine
Close enough that I hear every word You whisper
Watch You turn my teardrops into wine
I'd stand in line
I'd sleep outside
Lord I don't mind
I wanna be near You, just near You
So don't go wasting too much space on me
I wanna be near You, just near You
That's all the Heaven I will ever need
Don't care if I get wings
Or a golden harp with silver strings to play
Don't wanna lay around hanging out on some cloud all day
Lord if it's ok
I wanna be near You, just near You
So don't go wasting too much space on me
I wanna be near You, just near You
That's all the Heaven I will ever need
You're all the Heaven I will ever need
