Wrong Side of Heaven Lyrics

Montagues and Capulets

It's cursed from the start

Fate'll choose, no second guessin'

Papa likes you fine

What if we traded hearts

Stand with me side by side

No secrets in the dark

Can it be when it's right

Oh it's still all wrong

Poison in our veins

A blade in lovers' words

Glory in a swan song

I hope that I go first

Don't wanna miss you when you're gone

I see God

In your eyes

But he's far away

And I realize

The distance between us

I hate to say goodbye

You're the wrong side of heaven for me

You're the wrong side of heaven for me

Dress it all you want in

Azure scarves and veils

Finest leather, scarlet sails

Feathers and plumes

Unraveled all to threads

Oh rapture is a sweet perfume

It's still all in our heads

Oh quickly it's undone

And simply we're deceived

Hopefully an honest heart

Gives and never takes

Gentle, from the start

Sighs softly as it breaks

Like petals pulled apart

I see God

In your eyes

But he's far away

Like a sunrise

Fleeting, she fades

Sets on you and I

You're the wrong side of heaven for me

You're the wrong side of heaven for me

A pale new horizon

Calls me in rhapsodies

I sing to that horizon and

It echoes back to me in

Stories, and laughter

At happy ever after

And all the fairy tales

We believed

So goodbye, my love

Goodbye, my love

Goodbye

It's here our freedom lies

And just like that

In unison

Like breath, our voices rise

I see God

In your eyes

But he's far away

As the sea dries

Her scars in the earth

Uncrossable divide

You're the wrong side of heaven for me

You're the wrong side of heaven for me

I see God

In your eyes

But he's far away

And I can't hide

Curtain's final fall

All we players bow goodbye

You're the wrong side of heaven for me

You're the wrong side of heaven for me
