The Heaven-side Blues

Lay me down,

Down to sleep,

Let me dream,

Dream a wish.

I wish for love,

Love follows pain,

Pain is a dance,

Dance the night away.

Fast falls the tide of rain,

Rain falls down,

Down on me,

Me with no umbrella.

Wishing is dreaming,

Dreaming is crying,

Crying is laughter,

Laughter is fleeting.

Down the rain falls,

Falls from the sky above,

Above us angels fly,

Fly with ruined wings.

The gates of time,

Time oh evil time,

Time tells the bells to toll,

Toll the bells shall.

Dancing among the stars,

Stars that fly across the skies,

Skies are a different shade of blue,

Blue sweet blue.

Down falls the rain,

Rain of tears,

Tears soak the earth,

Earth spins in tears.

If the sky is crying,

Crying all those tears,

Tears of sorrow,

Sorrow and joy.

We've fallen into grace,

Grace of love grace of hate,

Hate of the scars of yesterday,

Yesterday the rain fell.

Falling down,

Down we fall,

Fall to Earth,

Earth from heaven.

Age stops,

Stops a flight to heaven,

Heaven rings with song,

Song the angels sing.

Rain falls to Earth,

Earth goes to heaven,

Heaven rings with song,

Song the angels sing.

Rain falling,

Angels singing,

Dreaming wishes,

Living life.
