Here and Heaven

With a hammer and nails and a fear of failure we are building a shed Between here and heaven between the wait and the wedding for as long as we both shall be dead To the world beyond the boys and the girls trying to keep us calm We can practice our lines 'til we're deaf and blind to ourselves to each other Where it's fall not winter spring not summer cool not cold And it's warm not hot have we all forgotten that we're getting old With an arrow and bow and some seeds left to sow we are staking our claim On ground so fertile we forget who we've hurt along the way and reach out For a strange hand to hold someone strong but not bold enough to tear down the wall 'Cause we aint lost enough to find the stars aren't crossed why align them why fall hard not soft Into fall not winter spring not summer cool not cold Where it's warm not hot have we all forgotten that we're getting old And it's fall not winter spring not summer cool not cold And it's warm not hot has everyone forgotten that we're getting old And it's fall not winter spring not summer cool not cold And it's warm not hot have we all forgotten that we're getting old
