Claire In Heaven Lyrics - Capercaillie

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've been plucked from 

Up here we have no goals 

You tear your hearts, you claw your souls 

I wonder at this life that passed me be 

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 

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 I 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 around up here and stare 

It's me my name is Claire 

Claire in heaven
