Claire in Heaven

I was no more than three days old

Too young to speak, too young to count my toes

I think of fields where I might run

This moral twilight I was plucked from

Up here we have no goals

You tear your hearts, you claw your souls

I wonder at this life that passed me by

But still I smile

Although I'm not with you down there

I sit alone up here and stare

It's me, my name is Claire

Claire in heaven

Claire in heaven

I wait for my next life patiently

I'm in no rush because of what I see

It's hard for me to understand

I gaze from poisoned sea to poisoned land

Up here we see a new tomorrow

Your world's not round, your world is narrow

For me, I just had a while

But still I smile

Although I'm not with you down there

I sit alone up here and stare

It's me, my name is Claire

Although I'm not with you down there

I sit alone up here and stare

It's me, my name is Claire

Claire in heaven

Claire in heaven

Clai-re in heaven
