Testo PEARLY GATES - Sam Tompkins
Testo della canzone PEARLY GATES (Sam Tompkins), tratta dall'album ARE WE GONNA SING?
I gotta reach the pearly gates by 9, but I'm fallin' behind
Left my wallet on the Central Line, maybe that was a sign
Well, anyway, I had to jump the turnstile and run for my life
Tryin' to avoid the stupid fine from the damn ticket guy
But he won't let me by, yeah
Ain't no luck on my side, yeah
Take my breath away, it comes straight back anyway and
There goes my heart again, but I'm still alive
Go, try and punch a hole straight through my skin
You won't get far 'cause I don't feel a thing, yeah
I couldn't pay so they brought me downtown for a slap on the wrist
They looked at me kinda funny when I said I got a date with Jesus, damn
Should've seen the poor old man's face when he balled up his fists, yeah
He was speakin' his mind and truth like he couldn't resist
To say he don't exist
Must've been an atheist, damn
Take my breath away, it comes straight back anyway and
There goes my heart again, but I'm still alive
Go, try and punch a hole straight through my skin
You won't get far 'cause I don't feel a thing, yeah
Gettin' out the station 'round about 9, still runnin' behind
Missed calls from my mother, she asked if I am alright
I guess it didn't have to be today or even tonight
Maybe I should just let this go, take it as a sign
Maybe it's not my time, yeah, and that's just fine, yeah, whoo, ha
Take my breath away, it comes straight back anyway and
There goes my heart again, but I'm still alive
Go, try and punch a hole straight through my skin
You won't get far 'cause I don't feel a thing, yeah
Go, try and punch a hole straight through my skin
You won't get far 'cause I don't feel a thing
