Yoga Alice - Everybody Wants Forever

Everybody wants heaven,
Nobody wants goodbye.
Everybody wants forever,
Nobody wants tonight.
We pray for wings in the morning light,
Then run from the fire when it comes alive.
Everybody wants heaven,
Nobody wants to die.
We light candles in beautiful rooms,
Talk about angels with perfume and smoke.
Say we believe in something beyond,
But panic the moment the silence gets close.
Gold crosses shining on our chest,
Fear hiding under every breath.
We ask for paradise every night,
