Heaven Can Wait

Charlotte Gainsbourg Charlotte Gainsbourg

She's sliding, she's sliding down to the dregs of the world
She's fighting, she's fighting the urge to make sand out of pearls

Heaven can wait and hell's too far to go
Somewhere between what you need and what you know
And they're trying to drive the escalator into the ground

She's hiding, she's hiding on a battleship of baggage and bones
There's thunder, there's lightening and an avalanche of faces you know

Heaven can wait and hell's too far to go
Somewhere between what you need and what you know
And they're trying to drive the escalator into the ground

You left your credentials in a greyhound station
with a first aid kit and a flashlight
Going to a desert unknown

Heaven can wait and hell's too far to go
Somewhere between what you need and what you know
And they're trying to drive the escalator into the ground
