Prefab Sprout - Pearly Gates Lyrics
Feel the sun upon your backSomeone somewhere wants to steal itPray each night youll catch the thiefBut while you sleep he comes and takes itDoes that make you think little girl ?Doesnt it just little boyTherell be no stampede on the pearly gatesIll say after you youll say I dont mind the waitTherell be no stampede on those imposing doors***** and afraid, cowering we crawl on all foursSee the smile on her young faceWatch life casually erase itNow I know shes all grown upShe wears a look I cant quite place yetWhat makes you cry little girl ?Maybe Im scared little boyTherell be no stampede on the pearly gatesIll say after you youll say I dont mind the waitTherell be no stampede on those imposing doors***** and afraid, cowering we crawl on all foursTherell be no stampede on the pearly gatesIll say after you youll say I dont mind the wait
