Don't Keep Heaven Busy
Johnnyswim Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Clouds part ways, angels gaze at you and me.
Skies changing, tides raising, ain't good enough.
World spinning, all heaven is watching us.
Don't keep heaven busy without me.
Don't keep heaven busy without me.
We melt just like stars in flight with fire and a crash of light.
Don't keep heaven busy without me.
Don't keep heaven busy without me.
You can't keep heaven busy without me.
Don't keep heaven busy without me.
Oh, we fell into love, we fell into wonder.
And we found something greater than us when we found each other.
When time comes, I move on, don't turn and weep.
I'll catch up soon enough, wait and see.
Don't keep heaven busy without me.
Don't keep heaven busy without me.
Don't keep heaven busy without me.
Don't keep heaven busy without me.
