Pretty Nova, one year over
|
Legal age of consent
|
In the flower of sweet youth our
|
Days of heaven were spent
|
|
Giving that heaven away
|
Giving that heaven away
|
Rock 'n' Roll, and freeing your soul, and
|
Giving that heaven away
|
|
I'm looking 'round for that sixties sound -
|
Those days are gone
|
And all us acid dropping, world stopping, be bopping
|
Freaks are just hanging on
|
|
Little Nova, did you have to show the
|
Whole world how to rebel?
|
Standing there with your long brown hair
|
Like a cool breeze blowing through hell
|
|
Giving that heaven away
|
Giving that heaven away
|
Back in those days we all were so crazy
|
Giving that heaven away
|
|
Giving that heaven away
|
Giving that heaven away
|
Ooooooowh
|
Giving that heaven away
|
|
Seems like the whole world's at a fire sale
|
But I might be wrong
|
With all the home shopping,
|
Bling bling and hip hopping
|
Maybe it's just going strong
|
|
But hey now Nova, we both know the
|
Ones who're always making it pay
|
Well any fool can sell a jewel
|
But an angel will give it away
|
|
Giving that heaven away
|
Giving that heaven away
|
Oooooooh I'm going go down singing
|
And giving that heaven away
|
|
Where did the day go in that Winnebago?
|
The two of us hot as a stove
|
Fools for pleasure, digging for treasure
|
Down in that Black Oak grove
|
Giving that heaven away
|
Giving that heaven away
|
Oooooooh
|
Giving that heaven away
|
