Letter Never Sent (Live at the Olympia) Lyrics
[Verse 1: Michael Stipe]
It's been pretty simple so far
Vacation in Athens is calling me
And knock, knock, knock on wood
I thought I'd left you behind
[Chorus: Michael Stipe/Bill Berry]
Heaven is yours
Heaven is yours
Heaven is yours where I live
[Verse 2: Michael Stipe]
I followed the catacombs
Left my soul at home
This letter never sent
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Mills]
And it's so far
It's so dark
I'm so lost
[Chorus: Michael Stipe/Bill Berry/Mike Mills]
Heaven is yours (Another story)
Heaven is yours (Another story for a while)
Heaven is yours where I live (Someone, show me)
It's been pretty simple so far
Vacation in Athens is calling me
And knock, knock, knock on wood
I thought I'd left you behind
[Chorus: Michael Stipe/Bill Berry]
Heaven is yours
Heaven is yours
Heaven is yours where I live
[Verse 2: Michael Stipe]
I followed the catacombs
Left my soul at home
This letter never sent
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Mills]
And it's so far
It's so dark
I'm so lost
[Chorus: Michael Stipe/Bill Berry/Mike Mills]
Heaven is yours (Another story)
Heaven is yours (Another story for a while)
Heaven is yours where I live (Someone, show me)
[Bridge: Michael Stipe/Mike Mills]
When I’m moving too fast
Where’s my new address?
[Verse 3: Michael Stipe]
The water's receiving me now
The catacombs are filling in
If my soul was made of stone
No, not, not so dark, dark
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Mills]
And it's so far
It's so dark
I'm so lost
And it's so far
It's so dark
I'm so lost
[Chorus 1: Michael Stipe/Bill Berry/Mike Mills]
Heaven is yours (Another story)
Heaven is yours (Another story for a while)
Heaven is yours where I live (Someone, show me)
Heaven is yours (Another story)
Heaven is yours (Another story for a while)
Heaven is yours where I live (Someone, show me)
When I’m moving too fast
Where’s my new address?
[Verse 3: Michael Stipe]
The water's receiving me now
The catacombs are filling in
If my soul was made of stone
No, not, not so dark, dark
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Mills]
And it's so far
It's so dark
I'm so lost
And it's so far
It's so dark
I'm so lost
[Chorus 1: Michael Stipe/Bill Berry/Mike Mills]
Heaven is yours (Another story)
Heaven is yours (Another story for a while)
Heaven is yours where I live (Someone, show me)
Heaven is yours (Another story)
Heaven is yours (Another story for a while)
Heaven is yours where I live (Someone, show me)
