rate me

[ robert buck/natalie merchant ]<br><br><br>Heaven, is this heaven where we are? <br>See them walking, if you dare, if you call that walking.<br>Stumble, stagger, fall and drag themselves along the streets of heaven.<br><br>Where is the blessed table to feed all who hunger on earth,<br>Welcomed and seated each one joyfully served? <br>See them walking, if you dare, if you call that walking.<br>Stumble, stagger, fall and drag themselves along the streets of heaven.<br><br>Where is the halo that should glow 'round your face,<br>And where are the wings that should grow from your shoulder blades? <br>Show them to me.<br>These are sobering sights I've seen in the city of angels<br>Have all been one rude awakening that was dues to me in heaven.<br><br>There would have been heavenly music I was convinced before.<br>A host of the dearly to meet me with hosannas sung at the door,<br>But these are sobering sights I've seen in the city of angels<br>Have all been one rude awakening that was dues to me in heaven.<br>In this city of fallen angels.
