It`s Not Heaven — текст песни (Olivia Newton-John)

(Olivia Newton-John/Randy Goodrum)

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

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

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
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 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
