Heaven When We're Home

She had frowned in the morning
And said, "go and be a man"
I returned in the evening
With a silver wedding band

She had smiled in the noon time
And said, "you will understand"
Cuz I's waiting to be with her
'Til I saw the promised land

Oh by heavens river lies
A house that cries in shame
You pay in blood for the price of your love
And this land is yours to name
And a name it never dies

She was grinning in the morning
When she felt me touch her hand
Said, "The day is for ignoring
When you ain't got no plans"

And we ran like the river
Runs and carves out all the land
And we marked upon the world
That it was touched by our hand

Oh by heavens river lies
A house that cries in shame
You pay in blood for the price of your love
And this sky is yours to name
And a name it never dies

She was gone in the morning
With the light through my hands
And the days piled on me
Like a million grains of sand

Cuz this living was never for her
Like the dove ain't for the land
I could only look upon
That distant promised land

Oh by heavens river lies
A house that cries in shame
You pay in blood for the price of your love
And this life is yours to name
And a living never dies
