Seventh Heaven Lyrics

I want to see you with the pharaoh's curse
The apple flower doggerel while the batteries burst
And I'm out in the city in the typical noise
With the suntan ellipse and the filigree of energy
What you want and what you need
Now I'm down on my knees with a pocket full of widows
You can do it down here what you never did there
When you feel so untethered from the broken veneer

Don't tell nobody I'm here
Don't tell nobody I'm here
Now I'm far from the world in your seventh heaven
Now I'm far from the world in your seventh heaven

Now you got to let me know
Now you got to let me know
Now you got to let me know
Or you got to let me go

I'm gonna take it with me
I'm gonna take it with me
I'm gonna take it with me
I'm gonna take it down, take it down with me

A second language, a burden of hope
I've seen it all come clean like a guillotine rose
A photograph, a lowlife laugh
We'll shoot for the empire, land in the dust pile
I want to wake up in the shadow of a fever pitch
With the gold glass heart sending messages
I hear the voice over the phone, she pauses, says
"I'll never, never, never go"

Oh can I stay here with you?
Oh can I stay here with you?
Now I'm dead to the world in your seventh heaven
Now I'm dead to the world in your seventh heaven

Now you gotta let me know
Now you got to let me go
Now you got to let me know
Or you got to let me go

I'm gonna take it with me

Someday there might be something better
You can change your mind but you can't forget her
Someday there might be something better
You can change your mind but you can't forget her

So let it rise to the highest high in the satellite sky
So let it rise to the highest high in the satellite sky
Up to the seventh heaven
To your seventh heaven
So let it rise, rise, rise
To the highest height in the satellite sky

Now I'm starting to fall from your seventh heaven
Now I'm starting to fall from your seventh heaven
Now you gotta let me know (gotta let me know)
Now you got to let me go (gotta let me go)
Now you gotta let me know (gotta let me know)
Or you got to let me go (gotta let me go)

Love a love a love a love
Love a love a love a love
Love a love a love a love
Love a love a love a love
(Seventh heaven) love a love a love a love
Love a love a love a love
(Seventh heaven) love a love a love a love
