lyrics

So I traveled far to Boston,
With that suitcase on the plane,
And I looked up a professor,
I said "teach me my real name!"
And he said "no, no . . .
I don’t have the words to teach you."

So I drove to California,
With that suitcase in my car,
And I found the wisest doctor,
I said, "doctor, help me sir!"
And he said "no, no, no, no, no . . .
I don’t have a pill to fix you."

So I ran up to Montana,
With that suitcase on my back,
And I found the last live poet
I said, "show me what I lack!"
And he said "no, no, no, no, no, no, no . . ."
This is not a song to heal you."

Holy Heart

So I walked to Arizona,
Searching for my oldest friend,
I said "friend, I’m getting tired
Could you hold me till the end?"
But he had a job, and a car, and a wife,
To start a family of his own
And I don’t know who could blame him
But it shook me to my bones
When he said "no." He said "no . . .
I don’t have the time to hold you."

Holy Heart

So I crawled back to Wisconsin,
Trying to find a piece of home,
And I walked up to my pastor
I said "God, I’m so alone!"
He said "well have you been praying the way that we pray?
And have you been going the places we go?" I said "no."
And he said "no, no, no, no, no, no, no
This is not a home to house you."

Holy Heart

So I flew right up to heaven,
With that suitcase left behind,
And I walked those streets of gold,
Until I looked God in the eye,
He said "son, you’re looking tired,
But there’s one more thing to ask . . .
Do you believe in what you’re preaching?
That the first will be the last?"
And I said "yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah . . .
Everything I’ve done has been for you!"

Holy Heart
