Lyrics

"If It's Like This On Earth" by Ed Englerth

If your brakes give out now baby
I will help you stop
If you want to come through the door
You will not find it locked
If you tell me that it's cold outside
You can wear my coat
If you got a question
I'll answer if I know
//: If it's like this on earth, consider heaven ://
When your garden needs water
You're free to use my well
If the wolf comes to the door
I will answer if you yell
Get it off your chest
I'll be there to listen
I'll help you find yourself
If you discover you are missing
//: If it's like this on earth, consider heaven ://
If all friends exit baby
I won't leave you
If things get heavy
I will be your mule
When shadows fall
All across the heart
Don't be afraid
Just tell me where you are
//: If it's like this on earth, consider heaven ://
If the house is haunted
Take hold of my hand
We'll face our demons
We'll stand back to back
When the revolution
Comes busting through the door
Look them in the eye
These are the dogs of war
If there's nothing left
Then that can be done or said
That's the day
We'll lie down with the dead
//: If it's like this on earth, consider heaven ://
//: If it's like this on earth, consider heaven ://
