Текст Lori McKenna – Still Down Here

St. Peter says «You picked a real good day»
Your lungs fill back up with air — your worries float away
Jesus smiles — he’s a handsome man
He’s taller than you thought — eyes so warm — reaching out his hand

In the Holy Kingdom angels sing a hymn
For all your good behavior they handed you your crown and wings
You don’t feel the sorrow, there’s no pain no fear
Don’t forget about me — don’t forget about me
I’m still down here

Everyone knew — you were on your way
Earlier than expected, said the papers that day
You saw your family — some for the very first time
There were smiling faces, strawberry cake and a welcome home sign

In the Holy Kingdom angels sing a hymn
For all your good behavior they handed you your crown and wings
You don’t feel the sorrow, there’s no pain or fear
Don’t forget about me — don’t forget about me
I’m still down here

Here in the shadow-land — Here where there’s doubt
Here where we must learn to live — With what we live without

Clouds of silver and streets of gold
Where no shadow is cast — and nobodies growing old
You find an old friends and take a walk around
But believe them when they say — «tell you one thing — just don’t look down»

In the holy kingdom — angels sing a hymn
Stay there above the clouds now — don’t ever she’d one tear
Don’t forget about me — don’t forget about me,
I’m still down here…
