The irony of life, I swear

[dawningstar]

So yea, apparently when the big things in your life start going well it's so the little things can fall apart. Oh well.

It turns out that Andy Griggs is playing at Tom Brown park for the fourth of July. He has this song that I absolutely love. Sadly, I won't be here for the 4th. C'est la vie. Anywho, the following lyrics are his.

If Heaven was an hour, it would be twilight,
When the fireflies start their dancin' on the lawn;
An' supper's on the stove and Mamma's laughin',
And everybodys workin' day is done.

If Heaven was a town, it would be my town,
Oh, on a summer day in 1985.
An' everything I wanted was out there waitin',
And everyone I loved was still alive.

Don't cry a tear for me, now, baby;
There comes a time we all must say goodbye.
And if that's what Heaven's made of,
You know, I, I ain't afraid to die.

If Heaven was a pie, it'd be cherry,
So cool and sweet an' heavy on the tongue.
An' just one bite would satisfy your hunger,
An' there'd always be enough for everyone.

If Heaven was a train, it sure would be a fast one,
That could take this weary traveller around the bend.
If Heaven was a tear, it'd be my last one,
An' you'd be in my arms again.

Don't cry a tear for me, now, baby;
There comes a time we all must say goodbye.
And if that's what Heaven's made of,
You know, I, I ain't afraid to die.

Yeah, if that's what Heaven's made of,
You know, I, I ain't afraid to die.
