Tryin’ To Get To Heaven Lyrics – David Bowie
Singer: David Bowie
Title: Tryin’ To Get To Heaven
The air is getting hotter
There’s a rumbling in the sky
I’ve been wading through the high muddy water
With the heat rising through my eyes
Every day your memory grows dimmer
It doesn’t haunt me like it did before
I’ve been walking through the middle of nowhere
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
When I was in Missouri
They would not let me be
I had to leave there in a hurry
I only saw what they let me see
That broke a heart that loved you
Now you can seal up the book and not write anymore
I’ve been walking that lonesome valley
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
People on the platforms
Waiting for the trains
I can hear their hearts a-beatin’
Like pendulum swinging on a chain
When you think that you’ve lost everything
You find out you can lose a little more
I’m just going down the… that road feeling bad
Trying hard to get to heaven before they close the door
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
I’m going down the river
Going down to New Orleans
They tell me everything is gonna be all right
But I don’t know what “all right” even means
I’ll close my eyes and I wonder, boys
If everything is as hollow as it seems
I’ve been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door (Trying to get there)
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door (Trying to get there)
(And relive my dreams)
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
(I’ve been all around the world, boys)
Trying to get to heaven… before they close the door
