Heaven Bound And Glory Be - Kevin Devine[00:00:00]
A reporter in a jailroom whispering her source to a dying bulb[00:00:11]
While the prince is in a fable peaceful in his cradle[00:00:22]
Convinced of the impossible[00:00:28]
All those wicked words I used to build my wild Western truth[00:00:33]
I was just following the rules yeah I did what I had to do[00:00:44]
So now it's later than it needs to be[00:00:55]
And in the dulcet tones of dream[00:01:01]
The prince atop his chariot[00:01:07]
Heaven bound and glory be[00:01:11]
A mother in a market chases after children that she barely knows[00:01:19]
While the father on the barstool dropped off by his carpool[00:01:30]
Is playing a familiar role[00:01:36]
I used to be a conquering king[00:01:42]
I watched the slow stars shoot and swing[00:01:47]
When I'd wake the world would sing[00:01:53]
But now I can't hear anything[00:01:59]
So now its later than it needs to be[00:02:04]
And while his stranger family sleeps[00:02:10]
The king looks for his castle[00:02:17]
Heaven bound and glory be[00:02:20]
There's a myth we must've made[00:02:27]
One we're spreading every day[00:02:33]
In every dying dream we grieve[00:02:39]
The humming hole we fight and feed[00:02:45]
It's the loving lives we long for[00:02:51]
Heaven bound and glory be[00:02:54]
A man in a hotel room tangled to his teeth by the telephone[00:03:03]
He's waiting on a woman wondering what she's doing[00:03:15]
pacing And so his pulse won't slow[00:03:21]
He drums his legs and pulls his hair he carves her dimples in the air[00:03:26]
The raging world has spooked him scared[00:03:38]
And he don't want her lost out there[00:03:43]
So now it's later than it needs to be[00:03:49]
And though his aching eyes want sleep[00:03:55]
Against all rationality[00:04:01]
Against everything he believes[00:04:06]
He prays for her protection[00:04:13]
Heaven bound and glory be[00:04:16]
He prays for her protection[00:04:25]
Heaven bound and glory be oh oh[00:04:28]
I pray for your protection[00:04:36]
Heaven bound and glory be[00:04:40]
