Lyrics

we were fools now we know it
but no movie screen will ever show it
when the flesh was strong and our will were weak
when the sparks would fly every time we'd meet
when we held each other there was no tomorrow
we held inside the rage, the pain and the sorrow

we let heaven slip from the palm of our hand
we let heaven slip from the palm of our hand

we made no plans we just existed
when you tried to move ahead, I resisted
when every square hole peg came up round
and our foolish hearts came tumbling to the ground
still we held each other there was no tomorrow
we held inside the rage the pain and the sorrow

we let heaven slip from the palm of our hand
we let heaven slip from the palm of our hand

we made no plans we just existed
when you tried to move ahead, I resisted
when every square hole peg came up round
and our foolish hearts came tumbling to the ground
still we held each other there was no tomorrow
we held inside the rage the pain and the sorrow

we let heaven slip from the palm of our hand
we let heaven slip from the palm of our hand

you might say what are you talking about there was no heaven anywhere in your sight
I don't know, I still have doubt
but the crash was less than the thrill of the flight

we let heaven slip from the palm of our hand...
