I'm going to cash this check I want to take you out And when I pick you up I'll never let you down It's simple enough The road gets rough But dreams don't die On this side of heaven
When I saw you first Outside the shops of rain Well your eyes looked hurt I didn't know your name Still I carried you around I'm a lost and found For things that won't drown On this side of heaven On this side of heaven
There's bars and bills And cheaper thrills I can't wait until You meet me here On this side of heaven
Now you're in my voice And you're with my sleep The pause between the noise Leave a message please If you've been born What will keep you warm Is what sometimes comes To this side of heaven To this side of heaven
