Utopia

 

Last night as I slept

Angels came out of the depth

Took me up to where our God used to hide

I saw love without a quarrel

There was whiskey on the barrel

White pals took a seat by my side

 

Some church bells were ringin'

A choir was singin'

A song of the old fields of green

3 guys, God in the middle

They picked up their fiddles

And played me the utophia reel

  

Oh mother can't you see me

As I'm down on my knees in a prayer

I'm the guy who turned your luck away

You gave me all you got, Ma

At least twice as I ever deserved

Invest in your soul, forget your second birth

  

Then I met with an enemy

Nicknamed Reality

Kicked my dream out of my head

Someone knocked on my door

I woke up at the floor

About 4 feet beside of my bed

 

I felt a fear rockin'

Thanks God, no more knockin'

I'll break down this day all alone

I fell down in a corner

Like a dog without an owner

3 beers, than I picked up the phone

  

Oh honey can you help me

I am down on my knees and afraid

Better together, ain’t it so they say

I'm hunting for a reason

While my uppers make it work

How can you waste your life protectin' a jerk

  

Come on little lover

A couple of hours

In love it's a way to survive

It's hard to make those nights

But thank God for the moonlight

That's always around where you are
