Heaven on Earth
IAN WHITEWOOD
AIN'T NO HEAVEN ON EARTH
AND NOTHING BETWEEN US
NO PLACE IN MY WORLD
FOR LOVERS OR DREAMERS
I CAN SEE NO SENSE IN IT ALL
LIKE A CROSS HUNG ON A WALL SOMEWHERE
ALL YOUR FOOLS IN PARADISE
DON'T YOU KNOW IT'S COLD AS ICE OUT THERE
AIN'T NO HEAVEN ON EARTH JUST DOLLARS AND DEALERS
STILL YOU OFFER YOUR PRAYERS
TO PROPHETS AND HEALERS
JUST TAKE ME UNDERGROUND
FAR FROM THIS MADDING CROWD
NO WREATHES OR VIOLINS
SAVE YOUR PITY FOR YOUR OWN SINS UP THERE
AIN'T NO HEAVEN ON EARTH FOR LOSERS AND LONERS
HERE IN MY UNIVERSE
THEY STAND ON MY SHOULDERS
JUST TAKE ME UNDERGROUND
FAR FROM THIS MADDING CROWD
NO WREATHES OR VIOLINS
SAVE YOUR PITY FOR YOUR OWN SINS UP THERE
AIN'T NO HEAVEN ON EARTH
