John Prine - He Was in Heaven Before He Died текст песни

Текст
Theres a rainbow of babies

Draped over the graveyard

Where all the dead sailors

Wait for their brides

And the cold bitter snow

Has strangled each grassblade

Where the salt from their tears

Washed out with the tide

Chorus

And I smiled on the wabash

The last time I passed it

Yes I gave her a wink

From the passenger side

And my foot fell asleep

As I swallowed my candy

Knowing he was in heaven

Before he died

Now the harbors on fire

With the dreams and desires

Of a thousand young poets

Who failed cause they tried

For a rhyme without reason

Floats down to the bottom

Where the scavengers eat em

And wash in with the tide

Repeat chorus:

The sun can play tricks

With your eyes on the highway

The moon can lay sideways

Till the ocean stands still

But a person cant tell

His best friend he loves him

Till time has stopped breathing

Youre alone on the hill

Repeat chorus:
