lyrics

Coming down from heaven 17 now
I could see the lights along the way
sleeping in the backseat in the moonlight
wouldn't it be fine to go this way

and go that way
till the end of the day

are you looking forward to tomorrow
is it any different than today
counting all the hours you have borrowed
carried in your tattered coat of gray

and each new day
just slips away
into the gloom
of the afternoon

coming down from heaven 17
kicking at the stones along the way
talking to the girls that you might fancy
watching as the twilight melts away

coming down from heaven 17 now
