Heaven's No Place - Horse Feathers

He has no time loneliness is a stinger in his mind

A mind with two hearts, each with two parts, all of which ache for a wife

He bears it in his chest heaven’s no place for a lonely man to rest

With no children abreast, no peace to taste, happiness has no face

A bow with Methodist plans that fail him by day, became the father of the man

Who lives with no light, hid by the night, poisoned by hope with vacant eyes

He bears it in his chest heaven’s no place for a lonely man to rest

Dear lonely man, the reason you are stunned

You’re born to a town that always eats it’s young

And the more you love a lie it’s coming true

Your burning up your mind thinking it through

Take his name, Marie

Bear him a child and live quietly

The more she lives her life all alone

It’s burning up her mind to make a home

With these hearts so loud their beating’s heard

Like the wings of a trapped injured bird

The more we love a lie it’s coming true

It’s burning up our minds thinking it through

Dear lonely man, the reason you are stunned

You’re born to a town that always eats it’s young

With a pious patience please wait for that wife

By winter’s end you may come back to life
