Say Hello to Heaven - Temple of the Dog

Please mother mercy

take me from this place

and the long-winded kisses

i hear in my head

Words never listen

and teachers, oh, they never learn

warm from the candle

though i feel too cold to burn

He came from an island

and he died from the street

and he hurt so bad like a soul breaking

but he never said nothing to me

Say hello to heaven

heaven, heaven

say hello to heaven

heaven, heaven

New like a baby

and lost like a prayer

the sky was your playground

but the cold ground was your bed

Oh, i said, poor star-gazer

she's got no tears in her eyes

but smooth like a whisper,

she knows that love heals all wounds with time

Now it seems like too much love is never enough

yeah, you better seek out another road 'cause

this one's ended abrupt

I, i never wanted

to write these words down for you

with the pages

of (?) all the things we never do

Hey, so i blow out, out the candle

and i put you to bed

Since you can't say to me now

how the dog broke your bone there's just one thing left to be said
