Little Bits of Heaven

I met up with a wise man
And I told him my life story
How I always seem to feel things in extremes
I'm either dancin' on a mountain top
Or crawlin' through a valley
Don't seem to get too much time in between

Now why is it that sometimes life goes easy
And I just feel so happy day to day?
I taste a little bit of heaven and it frees me
Then all at once, the feelin' goes away
And he say

You take the little bits of heaven
And you string them together
Into memories of things you love so well
So well
And then the little bits of heaven
Will hold you together
As you struggle through the little bouts of hell
Hey, hey, yeah, yeah

I asked, "How 'm I gonna live a life of passion (oo)
When I also wanna to live a life of peace?" (oo)
And he said, "Balance is the highest form of action (oo)
But sometimes most difficult to achieve" (oo)
Watcha do?

You take the little bits of heaven
And you string them together
Into memories of things you love so well
Well (so well)
And then the little bits of heaven
Will hold you together
As you struggle through the little bouts of hell
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, yeah

Well, heaven is a state of mind
Oh, oh, woah, oh, oh
Oh, oh, woah, oh, oh
Well, whatcha look for, you will find
Oh, oh, woah
Oh, oh, woah, oh, oh, oh

And, so, my friend, the next time you're dejected
Frustrated, and devoid of all your dreams
Just conjure up some happy memories you've protected
Yeah, then sing this song
An acoustic remedy
Here we go

You take the little bits of heaven (heaven is a state of mind)
And you string them together (what you look for, you will find)
Into memories of things you love so well (Oh, oh, woah, oh, oh)
And then the little bits of heaven (heaven is a state of mind)
Will hold you together (there is no space, there is no time)
As you struggle through the little bouts of hell (oh, oh)

Tomas tus trocitos de cielo
Y los haces recuerdos O
Cosas que te hagan sentir bien (muy bien)
Y asi tus trocitos de cielo te
Sacan del abismo cuando
Sientes que te caes dentro de el

One more time
You take the little bits of heaven (little little bits)
And you string them together (little little bits, yeah)
Into memories of things you love so well (little little bits, yeah)
And then the little bits of heaven
Will hold you together
As you struggle through the little bouts of hell
