Say Hello 2 Heaven (Temple of the Dog demo 1990)

Please, Mother Mercy, take me from this place
And the long winded curses, I hear in my head...

Words never listen,
And teachers, oh they never learn
Now I'm warm from the candle,
But I feel too cold to burn...

He came from an island,
And he died from the street
He hurt so bad, like a soul breaking,
But he never said nothing to me, yeah...

Say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven
Say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven

New like a baby, lost like a prayer
The sky was your playground,
But the cold Earth is your bed...

Oh, said poor Stargazer
She's got no tears in her eyes,
But smooth like a whisper
She knows that love heals all wounds with time...

Now it seems like too much,
Love is never enough,
Yeah, you better seek out another road
'Cause this one has ended abrupt, oh-oh

Say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven
Say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven
Say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven

I, I never wanted to write these words down 4 you
With the pages of phrases of things we'll never do

Hey, so I blow out the candle, & I put you to bed
Since you can't say to me now,
How the dogs broke your bone,
There's just one thing left to be said...

Say hello to heaven - to heaven, yeah
Say hello to heaven - to heaven, yeah
Say hello to heaven - to heaven, yeah
Say hello to heaven - to heaven, yeah
