"Heaven Over Our Heads" lyrics

"Heaven Over Our Heads"

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 rigged the game
Still I would hold you tightly to my chest
And I'd show no shame
No shame
And do it all again

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

But I had some fun
And I made some love in exotic places
And though I may have forgot some names
I recall the faces
In my dreams
Out of reach

And I broke some promises
And refused to make amends
And I had my heart broke 7 times
And I lost some friends
But it's alright
What's it matter in the end

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

But 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
That 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

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