Fields they're burnin'
Behind the gates
And nothin' won't put them out
Kings they're runnin'
For no escape
While the mountains are brought to the ground
There are angels walking hounds
And you can see the clouds soaked through
Heaven is all it'll take to get you tired of heaven, too
When you go, they'll send you for their mansions behind the sun
You just might not be much use, where your hard times can't be sung
You may not care to be forgiven
And rather pay the devil's dues
Heaven is all it'll take to get you tired of heaven, too
Spendin' all your time in a day dream
While you're pretending to pray
Smoke signals burnin' upside down
To try and warn you
Try and warn you away
So I won't rest in the good Lord's light
Without a curtain or without the rain
No bed will ever beat that two dollar roof that we shared in Spain
I'll just get drunk and I'll miss you
And hope they put me on the moon
Heaven is all it'll take to get you tired of heaven, too
Oh lord, heaven is all it'll take to get you tired of heaven, too
