lyrics

Beneath the bluffs and the staggering peaks
Gather rainclouds so cold and bleak
Every summit is smothered in snow
But she lives in the valley below
She once answered the mountain’s call
Found a halfway home and she stalled
It’s not quite heaven
It’s not quite heaven
It’s not quite heaven, but you just can’t have it all

In a house with a busted screen door
Frozen mud tracked all over the floor
Now she speaks like the good times have passed
And what’s next? It surely won’t last
She was never in need of a dream
But did she ever really believe?
It’s not quite heaven
It’s not quite heaven
It’s not quite heaven, you never were that naive

Do the daydreamers die in this town,
Where they live with their heads in the clouds?
All that’s left are the weariest kind
Voices tired before their own time
So the young all yearn for better days
And the restless will settle to say
That it’s not quite heaven
It’s not quite heaven
It’s not quite heaven, and hell isn’t far away
