Sam Roberts - Streets Of Heaven (Promises, Promises) lyrics

What a way for a life to end What a way for a life to begin You come out kickin' and cryin' You can't afford to lose You don't know how to win Just don't forget where you came from Don't forget who you are They're all beatin' the same drum You've been playin' guitar You hear the angel callin' From the streets of heaven You go to work in the mornin' Get home by eleven You're just a drop in the ocean So don't rock the boat 'cause heads will roll... Promises, promises Got no control over this Promises, promises Not much to show except the .... Heavy rocks I've been lifting Memories I've been sifting My mind is always drifting And under me, the sands are shifting You hear the angel callin' From the streets of heaven You go to work in the mornin' Get home by eleven You're just a drop in the ocean So don't rock the boat cause heads will roll... You're a drop in the ocean, baby Don't drift away Just a body in motion, baby You're food for days You're just a drop in the ocean So don't rock the boat cause heads will roll... We're all lyin' awake at night We're all givin' the same advice We're all sayin' it don't feel right We're all rollin' the same ol' dice You're always worried about money You got the sting but no honey They're always puttin' their hooks in me They're always cookin' the books on me now Just don't forget where you came from Don't forget who you are They're all beatin' the same drum You've been playin' guitar You hear the angel callin' From the streets of heaven You go to work in the morning Get home by eleven You're just a drop in the ocean So don't rock the boat cause heads will roll... You're a drop in the ocean, baby Don't drift away Just a body in motion, baby You're food for days You're just a drop in the ocean So don't rock the boat cause heads will roll...
