When A Heart Beats

Halfway to paradise

Or so it seems that way

Same as anyone

Same as any other day

We seek eternity

In all the things we buy

Not top priority

But it sure figures very high

Who steals the real world

Fooling us all as we go

And who gets to heaven

Heaven only knows

When a heart beats, you can see forever

When our time sleeps, you can be forever

Meanwhile in cuckoo land

A most delightful place

We look no further than

The nose in front of our face

No wood anywhere

We can only see trees

Last train for

Material refugees

When a heart beats, you can see forever

When our time sleeps, you can be forever

Don't concern yourself

With matters past and future

Just put your mind to where they meet

But when a heart beats

Fooling us all as we go

Who gets to heaven

Heaven knows

When a heart beats, you can see forever

When a heart beats, you can be forever

Be forever
