Texty

[Verse 1]
Now, three score years and ten
He has earned the time
To putter in the garden
Time to plant potatoes
Time to plant some beans
The butcher bird is waiting
She knows what this means
[Verse 2]
Old boy takes a break
Spreads honey on some bread
The butcherbird is busy
Makin' sure her worm is dead
Old boy doesn't close his eyes to imagine anymore
He is home at last
What he's been wishin' for
[Verse 3]
He is so peaceful
So happy, he could scream
Livin' in the valley
The valley of his dreams
[Verse 4]
Why does it take so long
To put your fate on the ground?
The old boy is thinkin'
He took the long way around
But it's been his dream time
It's where he's always been
The butcherbird says it all
Sweeter than a violin
[Verse 5]
Now, three score years and ten
He has earned the time
To putter in the garden
[Verse 6]
He'll be pickin' chillies
He'll be makin' chili oil
Goin' back to be the man
A man of the soil
[Verse 7]
He is so peaceful (Oh, yeah)
So happy, he could scream
Livin' in the valley (Mmm)
The valley of his dreams
[Verse 8]
Why does it take so long
To put your fate on the ground?
The old boy is thinkin'
He took the long way around
But it's been his dream time
It's where he's always been
The butcherbird says it all
Sweeter than a violin
[Verse 9]
I have hopes, and I have a plan
I need your love and I need your hand
To help me through the future that I see
Call me obsessed, call me mad
You're the best woman I've ever had
You're the one to share the valley with me
[Verse 10]
I don't believe there's anything else
It doesn't get better than this
I'm in Heaven and I am sad
On every day that I miss
[Verse 11]
No, I don't believe that there is more
I won't be knocking on Saint Peter's door
The gate is open to see what I can see
A snake will bite, an ant will sting
Mother Nature is my king
Every day, the bush is callin' me
[Verse 12]
I don't believe there's anything else
It doesn't get better than this
I'm in Heaven and I am sad
On every day that I miss
[Verse 13]
People talk of paradise
When you die, it's their advice
The more you suffer, the better it will be
Somewhere up there in the sky
Angels show us how to fly
The prettiest wings when you feel like me
[Verse 14]
I don't believe there's anything else
It doesn't get better than this
I'm in Heaven and I am sad
On every day that I miss
[Verse 15]
And, no, I don't believe there's anything else
It doesn't get better than this
I'm in Heaven and I am sad
On every day that I miss
