or so it seems that way

same as anyone

same as any other day



we seek eternity

in all the things we buy

not top priority

but it sure figures very high



who steals the real world

fooling us all as we go

and who gets to heaven

heaven only knows



when a heart beats, you can see forever

when our time sleeps, you can be forever



meanwhile in cuckoo land

a most delightful place

we look no further than

the nose in front of our face



no wood anywhere

we can only see trees

last train for

material refugees



when a heart beats, you can see forever

when our time sleeps, you can be forever



don't concern yourself

with matters past and future

just put your mind to where they meet

but when a heart beats

fooling us all as we go

who gets to heaven

heaven knows



when a heart beats, you can see forever

when a heart beats, you can be forever



be forever
