Heaven​.​.​.​But Not Tonight

lyrics

Heaven... but not tonight
You're looking like the hell tonight,
You're turning like a driving wheel,
Your eyes are on the road alright,
You're telling me just how to feel,
I wish it was another night, so I could turn the driving wheel,
And we'd be getting home alright, hoping someone left a light on,

It could've been another life,
There's no one at the driving wheel,
It's heaven but it's not tonight,
You're burning like a lying deal,
You're gonna take me home alright and tell me love is nothing real,
We'll drink until the morning light and fall into the afterglow,

And you know what I'm saying that we'll all stick together somehow,
And you know what they're saying that they're all just a face in the crowd,
Sailing out on a long, hungover day,
Sailing out all alone, you're on your way,

We're never going home alright,
We're learning what the fuck is real,
The deck is stacking high on the line,
and no one's brokering the deal,
We're living in a paradigm,
That could fall apart,
All in for a hell of a night and heaven's not a part of the deal,

And you know what I'm saying that we'll all stick together somehow,
And you know what they're saying they're all just a face in the crowd,
Sailing out on a long, hungover day,
Sailing out all alone, you're on your way,

Love is like a letter, gone.

No one's going home alright,
We're turning like a driving wheel,
It's heaven but it's not tonight,
Someone must've left a light on.
