Heaven Passing Through

The sawmill lights, they shone so bright, you could barely see the stars But we caught a couple falling out on a blanket in the yard You're winding down from a late shift down at the nursing home Feels so good to be up late, pretending that I'm grown Come back from the dark somehow Finally living in the here and now No sign of a thundercloud following you Don't take it personal, the world don't turn around you Hold on to the moment like it's heaven passing through We washed the X's off our hands at the honky-tonk We two-stepped pretty bad and pretended we were drunk Shared cigarettes and talked about what we would do I knew no matter what I did, I'd never be with you Come back from the dark somehow Finally living in the here and now No sign of a thundercloud following you Don't take it personal, the world don't turn around you Hold on to the moment like it's heaven passing through Now we stare up and I say constellations that I know You repeat 'em back, but you don't care, you're only three years old It's nice to see the world the same as someone It feels so good to be up late, pretending that I'm young Come back from the dark somehow Finally living in the here and now No sign of a thundercloud following you Don't take it personal, the world don't turn around you Hold on to the moment like it's heaven passing through Come back from the dark somehow Finally living in the here and now No sign of a thundercloud following you Don't take it personal, the world don't turn around you Hold on to a moment like it's heaven passing through
