Heaven

[00:07.11] (Difford/Tilbrook)
[00:09.80] Bar illuminations shiver
[00:12.62] Shadows on the street
[00:16.29] The Cypriot sailors
[00:19.86] Find the world back at their feet
[00:26.12] Endless days of tobacco nights by the radio
[00:33.33] I wonder if they'll ever go to heaven
[00:42.45] The beer mats are wading
[00:46.00] In a table of froth
[00:49.61] The bar girl is serving
[00:53.24] With a check drying cloth
[00:59.50] She'll bend over backwards even though she's knackered
[01:06.84] I wonder if there'll have her up in heaven
[01:19.43] Like the sailors I walk home, it's six a.m.
[01:26.77] Heaven's round the corner in a comfortable bed
[01:33.91] And I love her.
[01:35.73] The officers and seamen
[01:40.22] Elbow places at the bar
[01:42.03] Words that tempt the goddess
[01:46.61] Don't leave beats upon the heart
[01:50.24] But she'll service his pleasure
[01:52.98] And never know the treasure
[02:01.90] That his wife keeps forever up in heaven
[02:09.18] The first light of the morning
[02:12.88] Proves too much for the street
[02:15.55] No one sees each other
[02:20.04] Just their presence there to meet
[02:25.49] Your chin takes to stubble at the sight of a funnel
[02:58.84] And the gangplank is no trouble up to heaven
[03:00.61]
