Charlotte Gainsbourg Lyrics

"Heaven Can Wait" lyrics


She's sliding, she's sliding
Down into the dregs of the world
She's fighting, she's fighting
The urge to make sand out of pearls

Heaven can wait and hell's too far to go
Somewhere between what you need and what you know
And they're trying to drive that escalator into the ground

She's hiding , she's hiding
On a battleship of baggage and bones
There's thunder, there's lightening
And an avalanche of faces you know

Heaven can wait and hell's too far to go
Somewhere between what you need and what you know
And they're trying to drive that escalator into the ground

You left your credentials in a greyhound station
With a first aid kit and a flash light
Going to a desert unknown

Heaven can wait and hell's too far to go
Somewhere between what you need and what you know
And they're trying to drive that escalator into the ground
