Streets Of Heaven - Tom Odell

Lyrics by:Tom Odell/Courtney Marie Andrews/Rick Nowels

Composed by:Tom Odell/Courtney Marie Andrews/Rick Nowels

 

Trouble in little town

 

People all gathered around

 

Abandoned bag on a step

 

This is what happened next

 

I was only trying to hear what the teacher said

 

Then I heard a gunshot ringing in my head

 

I could see it on the evening news there's 23 dead

 

In two-by-twos with our shirts stained red

 

If we walk these streets of heaven

 

We walk these streets of heaven now

 

It's hard to get through the days

 

Knowing they're miles away

 

Knowing what could've been

 

I look on down and I see

 

My brother on the stand trying to make a case

My mother in the hallway with tears upon her face

The lawyers say these cruel machines they keep us safe

But you and me we know the price to pay

As we walk these streets of heaven

 

Walk these streets of heaven

 

Another shot wasted life

 

Another friend to walk beside

 

I know it hurts but wipe your eyes

And we'll sing until the old men cry

It's just the way it is I don't know why

 

It's just the way it is I don't know why

 

It's just the way it is I don't know why

 

We're just a bunch of kids who didn't have to die

As we walk these streets of heaven

As we walk these streets of heaven

As we walk these streets of heaven

 

 

We walk these streets of heaven now
