Mary Chapin Carpenter - My Heaven lyrics

Nothing shatters nothing breaks

Nothing hurts and nothing aches

We've got ourselves one helluva place in my heaven

Looking down at the world below

A bunch of whining, fighting schmo's

Up here we've got none of those, in my heaven

There's pools and lakes and hills and mountains

Music, art, and lighted fountains

Who needs bucks here, no one's counting

In my heaven

No one works, we all just play

We pick the weather everyday

If you change your mind, that's ok, in my heaven

Grandma's up here, Grandpa too

In a condo with to-die-for views

There's presidents and movie stars

You just come as you are

No one's lost and no one's missing

No more parting just hugs and kissing

And all these stars are just for wishing

In my heaven

There's little white lights everywhere

Your childhood dog in Dad's old chair

And more memories than my heart can hold

When Eva's singing "Fields of Gold"

There's neighbors, theives and long lost lovers

Villains, poets, kings and mothers

Up here we forgive each other, in my heaven

For every soul that's down there waiting,

Holding on, still hesitating

We say a prayer of levitating, in my heaven

You can look back at your life and lot

But it can't matter what you're not

By the time you're here, we're all we've got

In my heaven

In my heaven

In my heaven
