Long Way To Heaven

from All That Glitters by Andy Pratt

/

lyrics

someone told me that you called
didn't want to call you back
don't think you understand at all
think it's better not to talk about
I wish you well in your future
thank you for the times we had
chalk it up to another learning experience
no need to be sad

Christians lie and steal like Pagans
Oh so much remains the same
the only given is the end of life
and taxes and people and so much beauty
You could lose everything today
you fall down fifty times you'll have to get up again
they'll be falling all around you
even your children no one is safe

oh love me love me
it's a long way through the world
a long way to heaven
takes a long time to be heard
it's a long long road
gonna be all right
be all right

Pochahontas was a lovely child
she wanted the killing to stop
and we loved her for it but she couldn't
stop the tide or the madness of the human race
why don't you go back to sleep
let the angels bring you dreams
you're not that wonderful a writer
you're not that special at all
and it's all right it's all right
oh love me love me etc
it's a long way home
don't let it get to you
