Five for Fighting - Road To Heaven lyrics

Sometimes I think about silly things

It's easy to do if you have time

It often happens when I'm falling off to sleep

After a second glass of wine

The clock is usually running out

Down by one or could be tied

I'm fading back, I'm winding up

The championship on the line...

But what if there was a Road to Heaven

That's what came to me today

Would there be traffic jams with diamond lanes

Potholes filled up with rain

Would there be tolls still left to pay

If there was a Road to Heaven

Made of gold and made of clay

Would the angels wave me up the hill

Or in my mirror just fade away

I've never been the kind of man who hits his knees

Got no answers to big questions, Well I don't know

Maybe tomorrow lightening will hit me on the head

And we can find out if we're just a joke

Ah Jesus I'm told can build a bridge

Finer than any other man

There's a certain peace to a country road

With a wheel in your hand

If there's a Road to Heaven

Will there be laws I must obey

If I drove my Mustang 85

Down the street, turned out the lights

Would the stars still light the way

If there's a Road to Heaven

Made of gold, made of clay

Would the angels lead me up hill

Or in my mirror just fade away

Night turns to morning

The old man should be snorning

I gotta get some sleep before I'm awake

Up with the monkeys

I sure love the monkeys

But this job ain't all cookies and cake

Sometimes I think about silly things

It's easy to do, if you got the wine

In the Eagle we're landing

I'm the President or a foreign king

With a harem from Encino to Brunei

But if there was a Road to Heaven

It'd be one long and crazy ride...

If there was a Road to Heaven babe

That's a road I'd like to find
