And right now, baby, it's alive

Count up the angels and then how many died
And how many heads they had to step all over just to get inside
But it's alright
I said: It's alright
You counted cards, you cut the deck, but they rig the game
Still I would hold you tightly to my chest and I'd show no shame
No shame
I'd do it all again

And I just wonder sometimes
If heaven's over our heads

But I had some fun and I made some love in exotic places
Though I may have forgotten some names, I recall the faces
In my dreams
Out of reach
And I broke some promises and refused to make amends
And I had my heart broke seven times and I lost some friends
But it's alright
What's the matter in the end?

And I just wonder sometimes
If heaven's over our heads
And I just wonder sometimes
If heaven's over our heads

I want it to shine on me
All over me
Even in my troubled soul
I want it to shine on me

Why must we struggle so as we try to do what's right?
Just a bunch of cockroaches just a-runnin' from the light
From the light
Shines upon our heads
And I may be stupid and I may be selfish and I may be wrong
But still, it's such a short time you were here
And such a long time you'll be gone
Scattered to the wind

And I just wonder sometimes
I just wonder sometimes
I just wonder sometimes
If heaven's over our heads
