Jeff Bates one day closer

Why do bad things happen to good people?
I don't know, but they do
And why is this world full of so much ego
And so much pain? I wish I knew
When I see God I'm gonna ask Him
But I don't know when that'll be
But I'm one day closer to one day knowing
All the answers I've been searching for
My time on earth is getting shorter
And my list of questions keeps on growing
But I'm one day closer to one day knowing
Why is life down here such a struggle?
Trouble's all I've ever known
And when I die will I go to heaven?
And will it be like going home?
Will my lost loved ones be there waiting?
There's no way to know right now
But I'm one day closer to one day knowing
All the answers I've been searching for
My time on earth is getting shorter
And my list of questions keeps on growing
But I'm one day closer to one day knowing
How it feels to stand among the Angels
And why sometimes they don't intervene
Yeah, I'm one day closer to one day knowing
All the answers I've been searching for
My time on earth is getting shorter
And my list of questions keeps on growing
But I'm one day closer to one day knowing
