Temple of the Dog - Say Hello To Heaven Lyrics

Please, mother mercy
Take me from this place
And the long winded curses
I hear in my head

Words never listen
And teachers, oh, they never learn
But I warm from the candle
Though I feel too cold to burn

He came from an island
And he died from the street
And he hurt so bad like a soul breaking
But he never said nothing to me, yeah

So say hello 2 heaven
Heaven, heaven
So say hello 2 heaven
Heaven, heaven, yeah

New like a baby
An' lost like a prayer
The sky was your playground
But the cold ground was your bed

Ooh, I said poor stargazer
She's got no tears in her eyes
But smooth like a whisper
She knows that love heals all wounds with time

Now it seems like too much love
Is never enough, yeah
You better seek out another road
'Cause this one has ended abrupt, oh oh

Say hello 2 heaven
Heaven, heaven
Say hello 2 heaven
Heaven, heaven
Say hello 2 heaven
Heaven, heaven

I, I never wanted
To write these words down for you
With the pages of phrases
Of things, we'll never do

Yeah, so I blow out, out the candle
And I put you to bed since you can't say to me now
How the dogs broke your bone
There's just one thing left to be said, yeah yeah

Say hello 2 heaven
Heaven, yeah
Say hello 2 heaven
Heaven, yeah

Say hello 2 heaven
Heaven, yeah
Say hello 2 heaven
2 Heaven, yeah, yeah, oh
