Looking for heaven - there is a fire in your eyes
The night is fallin' - and all that darkness implies
It is the time of the outward man
Freedom in a can - but it's built on sand

Sources keep changin' - you are so sure that it's there
Reach out to take it, take it - your fingers close on thin air
Staring in pain at your empty hand
And the miles you ran - can't you understand that

Heaven is within you
Given when your God is true
Heaven is within you
Given when you will is thru

Who's that shinin' man you're chasin' - chasin' thru shadows in your heart
He's who you really worship - you seek what he alone imparts
He does not hide, for the job is done
And the war is won, for it's just begun

This heaven that lives in you
Given when your God is true
Heaven is within you
Given when you will is thru

You were a child and you knew the way
But now you say that it's not for today
