Anywhere Like Heaven (Live)
This next song I wrote while I was in New York
And it's about cities
And New York is a city
And it's called "Anywhere like Heaven"
It's on, it's on my new album folks
I hope you like it
The name of the album is "Sweet Baby James"
I'm not going to say anything else about it
Except that it's really boss
And I, I hope you pick up on that there
It's a filthy lie, that's the truth
The good thing is just right here
When I walk along your city streets
And look into your eyes
When I see that simple sadness
That across your features lies
If my spirit starts to sink
It comes as no surprise
It's been a long way from anywhere
Like heaven to your town
There's a pasture in the countryside
I used to call my own
There's a natural pillow for my head
The grass there is overgrown, yes I know
I think of that place from time to time
When I want to be alone
I've come a long way from anywhere
Like heaven to your town, this town
Now people live from day to day
But they do not count the time
They don't see the days slipping by
And neither do I
There's a place inside of every man
That's looking to be free
Yes and everybody tells me
That it's as it's meant to be, they can say
Still I'll read the papers
And I'll watch them on the TV
And it's been a long way from anywhere
Like heaven to your town, this town
Put my capeau on here
Old level
Didn't mean it
Okay, this is another song from that same side
And it's about cities
And New York is a city
And it's called "Anywhere like Heaven"
It's on, it's on my new album folks
I hope you like it
The name of the album is "Sweet Baby James"
I'm not going to say anything else about it
Except that it's really boss
And I, I hope you pick up on that there
It's a filthy lie, that's the truth
The good thing is just right here
When I walk along your city streets
And look into your eyes
When I see that simple sadness
That across your features lies
If my spirit starts to sink
It comes as no surprise
It's been a long way from anywhere
Like heaven to your town
There's a pasture in the countryside
I used to call my own
There's a natural pillow for my head
The grass there is overgrown, yes I know
I think of that place from time to time
When I want to be alone
I've come a long way from anywhere
Like heaven to your town, this town
Now people live from day to day
But they do not count the time
They don't see the days slipping by
And neither do I
There's a place inside of every man
That's looking to be free
Yes and everybody tells me
That it's as it's meant to be, they can say
Still I'll read the papers
And I'll watch them on the TV
And it's been a long way from anywhere
Like heaven to your town, this town
Put my capeau on here
Old level
Didn't mean it
Okay, this is another song from that same side
