Turnpike Troubadours Heaven Passing Through
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
We washed the X's off our hands at the honky tonk
We two-stepped pretty bad and pretendеd we were drunk
Sharеd cigarettes and talked about what we would do
I knew no matter what I did, I'd never be with you
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
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
