Mary Chapin Carpenter - My Heaven Lyrics
Nothing shatters nothing breaksNothing hurts and nothing achesWe've got ourselves one helluva place in my heavenLooking down at the world belowA bunch of whining, fighting schmo'sUp here we've got none of those, in my heavenThere's pools and lakes and hills and mountainsMusic, art, and lighted fountainsWho needs bucks here, no one's countingIn my heavenNo one works, we all just playWe pick the weather everydayIf you change your mind, that's ok, in my heavenGrandma's up here, Grandpa tooIn a condo with to-die-for viewsThere's presidents and movie starsYou just come as you areNo one's lost and no one's missingNo more parting just hugs and kissingAnd all these stars are just for wishingIn my heavenThere's little white lights everywhereYour childhood dog in Dad's old chairAnd more memories than my heart can holdWhen Eva's singing "Fields of Gold"There's neighbors, theives and long lost loversVillains, poets, kings and mothersUp here we forgive each other, in my heavenFor every soul that's down there waiting,Holding on, still hesitatingWe say a prayer of levitating, in my heavenYou can look back at your life and lotBut it can't matter what you're notBy the time you're here, we're all we've gotIn my heavenIn my heavenIn my heaven
