Giving That Heaven Away Lyrics

from the new album "Time The Conqueror"

GIVING THAT HEAVEN AWAY

by
Jackson Browne



Pretty Nova, one year over

Legal age of
consent

In the flower of sweet youth our

Days of heaven were
spent



Giving that heaven away

Giving that heaven away

Rock 'n' Roll, and freeing your soul, and

Giving that heaven away



I'm looking 'round for that sixties sound -

Those days are
gone

And all us acid dropping, world stopping, be bopping

Freaks
are just hanging on



Little Nova, did you have to show the

Whole world how to rebel?

Standing there with your long brown hair

Like a cool breeze blowing through hell



Giving that heaven
away

Giving that heaven away

Back in those days we all were so
crazy

Giving that heaven away



Giving that heaven away

Giving that heaven away

Ooooooowh

Giving that heaven away



Seems like the whole world's at a fire sale

But I might be
wrong

With all the home shopping,

Bling bling and hip hopping

Maybe it's just going strong



But hey now Nova, we both know
the

Ones who're always making it pay

Well any fool can sell a
jewel

But an angel will give it away



Giving that heaven
away

Giving that heaven away

Oooooooh I'm going go down singing

And giving that heaven away



Where did the day go in that
Winnebago?

The two of us hot as a stove

Fools for pleasure, digging
for treasure

Down in that Black Oak grove

Giving that heaven
away

Giving that heaven away

Oooooooh

Giving that heaven
away
