Everyone is trying to get to the bar
The name of the bar is heaven
The band in heaven, they play my favourite song
They play it once again, they play it all night long
Chorus:
Heaven is a place
Where nothing ever happens
Heaven is a place
Where nothing ever happens
There's a party, everybody's there
Everybody leaves at exactly the same time
It's hard to imagine, nothing could be so exciting
Could be so much fun
Chorus
Blue neon shines down on Edward Harper Street
Where from time to time those familiar faces they meet
Why look over there, there's the two Jimmies and the Janis
And upon a small stage a piano player plays
And lady sings the blues with a white gardenia in her blue black hair
Her voice is like smoke drifting through the air
And from time to time when I'm alone my mind drifts there
Oh, that thismoment could last forever
When this kiss is over it will start again
It will not be any different, it will be exactly the same
It's hard to imagine that nothing at all
Could be so exciting
Could be so much fun
Chorus
