Heaven Over our Heads Lyrics

[Intro]
And right now, baby, it's alive

[Verse 1]
Count up the angels and then how many died
And how many heads they had to step all over just to get inside

But it's alright
I said, "It's alright"
You counted cards, you cut the deck, but they rig the game
Still I would hold you tightly to my chest and I'd show no shame
No shame
I'd do it all again


[Chorus]
And I just wonder sometimes
If heaven's over our heads


[Verse 2]
But I had some fun and I made some love in exotic places
Though I may have forgotten some names, I recall the faces
In my dreams
Out of reach
And I brokе some promises and refusеd to make amends
And I had my heart broke seven times and I lost some friends

But it's alright
What's the matter in the end?
[Chorus]
And I just wonder sometimes
If heaven's over our heads
And I just wonder sometimes
If heaven's over our heads

[Bridge]
I want it to shine on me
All over me
Even in my troubled soul
I want it to shine on me


[Verse 3]
Why must we struggle so as we try to do what's right?
Just a bunch of cockroaches just a-runnin' from the light
From the light
Shines upon our heads
And I may be stupid and I may be selfish and I may be wrong
But still, it's such a short time you were here
And such a long time you'll be gone
Scattered to the wind

[Outro]
And I just wonder sometimes
I just wonder sometimes
I just wonder sometimes
If heaven's over our heads
