It's Not Heaven

The Rumour
It’s Not Heaven
Here’s your lunch money, you better hurry for the old school bus
Did you clean your teeth this morning
I know you hate it when I start to fuss
Here’s the letter for your teacher, your dinner’s in the freezer
Five minutes in the microwave
Don’t wait for me this evening, I’m probably working late
Your dad is coming over with his new lover and I don’t wanna be around
So I’m gonna do some shopping, I’ll buy you those stockings
I’ll be back in half an hour
Oh it’s my anticipation, there’d be a confrontation
I know how much it breaks your heart
Let’s be pleased for him — he’s trying to make a brand new start
It’s not Heaven but it’s all we’ve got, you have to understand it
I wanted Ozzie and Harriet, with a picket fence around it
But that was all an illusion, now we’re living in reality
But we’re gonna have a happy ending — you and me
We’ll spend the weekend playing, I hope it won’t be raining
When we go to the game with Dan
I know you think he’s boring, but this time don’t ignore him
Won’t you give him half a chance
No he’s not as fun as dad, but there’s good as well as bad
In hanging on to yesterday
I’m not trying to replace him, guess I’m really trying to say
chorus — together I know we’ll survive
Rebuild our lives together, one day at a time
It’s not Heaven but it’s all we’ve got, it’s not the way I planned it
I wanted Ozzie and Harriet, with a picket fence around it
But that was all an illusion, now we’re living in reality
But there’s gonna be a happy ending, wait and see
Yes there’s gonna be a happy ending for you and me
You better hurry for the old school bus
