somewhere near heaven
Hey little girl with the angel green eyes and the face full of shadow and light
I still see you there in my arms when I wake and I wonder just what I did right
I see the soft slope of your body moonlit through the leak in the motel room blind
And now through this distance and time and travail this bed still feels empty where you used to lie
I wade through the flotsam of empire's decline
I watch ideals shatter on rich men's design
But sometimes I still feel you holding me somewhere near heaven
Just outside of time
Hey little girl I don't mean to hang on, hell, I guess I been getting along
It's just in these damn little moments of nothing I wonder just what I did wrong
I know I ain't pretty or any great find, it's just when the cogs of this life start to grind
I miss you and hope that you find something like we had
Somewhere near heaven, just outside of time
CHORUS
Yeah sometimes I still feel you holding me somewhere near heaven
Just outside of time
