The Hold Steady - We Can Get Together Lyrics

She played Heaven Isn't Happening.
She played Heaven Is A Truck.
She said Heavenly was cool.
I think they were from Oxford.
I only had one single.
It was a song about a pure and simple love.

There's a girl on heaven hill.
I come up to her cabin still.
She said Husker Du got huge.
But they started in St. Paul.
Do you remember Makes No Sense At All?

Heaven is the whole of the heart.
Paradise is by the dashboard light.
Utopia is a band.
They sang Love is the Answer.
I think they're probably right.

Let it shine down on us all.
Let it warm us from within.
He wasn't just the drummer.
He was the singer's younger brother.
I still spin that single.
But it don't sound that simple.

Let it shine down on us all.
Let it warm us from within.
He wasn't just the drummer.
He was someone's little brother.
I still spin that single.
But it don't sound that simple anymore.

Heaven is whenever we can get together.
Sit down on your floor.
And listen to your records.

Heaven is whenever we can get together.
Lock your bedroom door.
And listen to your records
