Heaven

When did the noise go away?
Wake up; make way for the day
Shake my hand; take me to play
In wind so strong

When did the tears go dry?
Why now does loss pass me by?
With no time left here to cry
I'm breathing wrong

Fictitious tears from cluttered heads
'Neath separate skies in separate beds
With carrot cakes and kisses in a cup

My heart is dyed in white and blue
I'm listening, can you hear it too?
You're singing in my dreams, don't wake me up

Don't close your eyes
They lead me through
If I'm not going to heaven
At least I had you
And when the pity lies
Blocked the sun from view
The light shone wasn't from heaven
No, it was always from you

When did the snow squall clear?
When did my heart start to hear?
With steller's song in my ear
The sun's turned on

So rip me off the rails
With all your kiss entails
Our makeshift ship still sails
Alive in song

There's light alive inside your eyes
Your laugh makes me reflect; revise
The notions of a world too often cruel

My whole life I've been out of time
With excess too. It seems a crime
That letting go of guilt might break some rule

Don't close your eyes
They lead me through
If I'm not going to heaven
At least I had you
And when the pity lies
Blocked the sun from view
The light shone wasn't from heaven
No, it was always from you

We'll stand here a while
We'll weep 'til we smile
We'll rewind; find solace in song
Protect my soul, bare
In your lilies and hair
Don't miss me
Say "kiss me 'til dawn"

Don't close your eyes
They lead me through
If I'm not going to heaven
Oh, at least I had you
And when the pity lies
Blocked the sun from view
The light shone wasn't from heaven
No, it was always from you
It was always from you

For now, the dust's settled down
For flowers blooming in town
With smiles pulled from a frown
From two to ten

So let the dusk give rise
To shooting stars in our eyes
We'll splay a path through the skies
And start again
