WHEN YOU'RE DOWN ON YOU'RE KNEES THAT WHEN YOU'RE CLOSEST TO HEAVEN
|
|
I don't believe what you're saying
|
I don't believe a word
|
You never did anything that was true
|
And hate will be your final work
|
|
I wouldn't dance at your party
|
No, I wouldn't risk a dance
|
And for the rest of my time
|
I will keep it mind
|
I will look at your life and will find:
|
When you're down on your knees
|
That's when you're closest to heaven
|
|
I don't believe when you're smiling
|
I don't believe in your mask
|
You hardly say anything you don't use
|
All your life is a lie at it's best
|
|
|
Your love means never another
|
Is there anything left that is true?
|
You will end all alone
|
With no peace of your own
|
'Cause the god of love you've never known!
|
When you're down on your knees
|
That's when you're closest to heaven
|
|
I guess you'll never get it
|
You'll never regret all the broken hearts
|
You've left behind
|
If there's one thing that you'll never find -
|
It's a peace of mind
|
|
There's always one a lonely street
|
Walking his way to the sun
|
There's always one
|
That takes the whole world's greed
|
All on his back and it's done
|
And ever since the world's turning
|
There's always a fool that is leading the blind
|
If there's one thing that you'll never find -
|
It's a peae of mind
|
|
Your thoughts are so low it's a shame
|
That's why for you everyone else is low
|
People see life through the glass in their hearts
|
So the fruits of your doings do show
|
|
In this world it all could mean maybe
|
But on the other side you'll hear it loud
|
I know time clears the clouds
|
One day you won't walk so proud
|
It will all be revealed there's no doubt
|
'Cause when you're down on your knees
|
That's when you're closest to heaven
|
|
When you're down on your knees
|
That's when you're closest to heaven
|
