Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I hear the sweet, sweet sounds of Heaven
Falling down, falling down to this Earth
I hear the sweet, sweetest sounds of Heaven
Drifting down, drifting down to this Earth
[Chorus]
Bless the Father, bless the Son
Hear the sound of the drums
As it echoes through the valley and it bursts
Yeah
Let no woman or child go hungry tonight
Please protect us from the pain and the hurt
[Verse 2]
Yeah
I smell the sweet scents, the sweet scents of Heaven (Sweet, of Heaven)
Tumbling down, tumbling down to the Earth (Tumbling down, oh)
I hear the sweet sounds, the sweet sounds of children (Sweet sounds, ooh, sweet sounds of children)
And they're praising the land of their birth (Praising, of their birth)
[Chorus]
No
No, I'm not, not going to hell, in some dusty motel
And I'm not, not going down in the dirt
I'm gonna laugh, I'm gonna cry (I'm gonna laugh, I'm gonna cry)
Eat the bread, drink the wine
'Cause I'm finally, finally quenching my thirst
Yeah
[Bridge]
You can't have a light without a little shadow, yeah
Always need a target for your bow and arrow
I want to be drenched in the rain of your heavenly love, oh yeah
Come on
[Chorus]
Let the music play loud, let it burst through the clouds (Let the music play loud, let it burst through the clouds)
And we all feel the heat of the sun
Yeah
Yeah, let us sing, let us shout (Let us shout)
Let us all stand up proud (All stand up proud)
Let the old still believe that they're young, yeah
[Bridge]
Sweet, sweet sound
Sounds so sweet
Sounds so sweet
Sounds so sweet
So sweet
Heaven, Heaven
Down, falling down to this Earth
[Outro]
I smell the sweet, sweet sounds of Heaven
Coming down, coming down, from the Earth (Coming down, coming down from the earth)
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah (Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)
Yes, come on
Ooh, come on, ooh, come, ooh, ooh, ooh (Come on, come on, yeah, yeah)
Hear the Gods laughing from above
Of Heaven
Falling down, falling down to this Earth
Let me lay down and sleep
Yeah, yeah
Heaven
Heaven
Ooh, ooh, ooh
