Travis - Pipe Dreams

From Album "The Invisible Band"
Track 4

I read it all, every word, and I still don't understand a thing.
What had you heard?
What had you heard, was it love, was it take another walk in the dark?
You'll never learn.

I'd pray to god if there was heaven,
but heaven seems so very far from here.

I stood in line and a thought crossed my mind I had been dreaming
but I didn't mind.
I signed the line and the woman looked right through me.
She didn't smile.

I'd pray to god if there was heaven,
but heaven seems so very far from here.

I'd pray to god if there was heaven,
but heaven seems so very far from here.

And it all boils down to the same old fear.
Just a link in a chain, just a puppet on a string.
and it all boils down to the same old thing.

Whether you win or you lose.
