about

I loved writing this song because the horn lines are so much fun. Nigel Hirst is on the saxophone.

lyrics

Messin' With My Heaven
(2010)

You call, I’ll be there,
Doesn’t matter when or where
I call
You don’t care
I’ll be lucky if you get out of your comfy chair
There’s nothin’ much I wouldn’t do for you
There’s nothin’ much I wouldn’t do for you
There’s nothin’ much I wouldn’t do for you –
‘Cause that’s just the way I am.

I can, remember when,
I had a lot of friends to do me favours
So I can see where you’re coming from
You’re just trying different flavours,
But now you’re
Messin’ With My Heaven baby
Messin’ With My Heaven
You’re Messin’ With My Heaven darling
You know just what I’m gonna say –

So hang your head low boy –
You’ve got to hang your head low boy,
You’ve got to hang your head low boy –
Everybody’s gotta change,
Nothing ever stays the same
Everybody’s gotta change,
Nothing ever stays the same

Ok, you can come back now
You’ve had a chance to think it over
You think there ain’t nothing out there
That get’ll too hard for you to shoulder,
But you –
Never get the message (do ya?)
Never get the message
You never get the message (do ya?)
It doesn’t have to be this way –

So hang your head low boy –
Everybody’s gotta change,
Nothing ever stays the same
