Doo-Wop in Harlem

There is a door we all walk through
And on the other side I'll meet you

Reunion in the air
Acappella meets pure prayer

Somewhere, I can't wait to meet you there
Somewhere, I can't wait to meet you there

If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight
They never sang doo-wop in Harlem
If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight
They never sang doo-wop in Harlem

There is a door it may seem locked
But in a little while
Don't be shocked
Above the noise, behind the glare
I know you're listening out there, somewhere

Somewhere, I can't wait to meet you there
Somewhere, I can't wait to meet you there

If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight
They never sang doo-wop in Harlem
If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight
They never sang doo-wop in Harlem
If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight
They never sang doo-wop in Harlem
If there ain't a heaven that holds you tonight
They never sang doo-wop in Harlem
