Bruno Deneckere - so far from heaven lyrics

rate me

<b>so far from heaven</b> by <i>Bruno Deneckere</i><br />He sold his appartment,gave the money to his wife

Left his job sayin' "I'm off to a better life"

but the car,it broke down

A few fare thee wells to a few good men

And from the bottom of his heart "We'll never meet again!"

but the car,it broke down

So far from heaven

too close to town

there to be stranded

with the car broken down

He glanced through the windscreen,his hands upon the wheel

first a curse was heard and then a cry "This can't be real!"

but the car it broke down

He grabbed the keys and in despair,threw them in the air

And then came to his senses,picked them up again

but the car had broken down

So far from heaven

too close to town

there to be stranded

with the car broken down

"Why forsake me lord

Now I started to believe you cared

I'm not as strong as Job

I need a light up ahead

You might as well strike me to death!"

On a one-way trip to the promised land

Don't count on anything but your own two hands

in case your car breaks down
