Heaven Over Our Heads

(album: Grapes Upon The Vine - 2023)

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-running 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
