Elbow - Very Heaven Lyrics
Official




Oh, very heaven
To be young and in your arms
In the days of falling walls
Very heaven, very heaven

Still all together
Before Doc slept with Jem and ran away
Hope that doesn't weigh on Jem
Back then, everybody had a gob on 'em

Seventeen says take me to your leader
Seventeen is anti-gravity, oh
Seventeen says, help me find my people
The ones I'll always need and never see, oh

Xena Cortina and her chattering, skint Athenians
Licking stamps in the dress-up box
Trying everything on, trying everything on

Jesus Abyssinia
Never trust crushed anything
Just too old to be holding court
Trying everything on

Seventeen says, feed me, feed the meter
Seventeen is don't you say a word, boy
Took aside by cellar party teacher
No one knew but everybody heard, boy

Seventeen drops every golden baton
Seventeen is parking nose-to-nose, oh
Smoking, splitting hairs and smashing atoms
Chosen by the bunch of souls you chose
Very heaven
