James > In Between Now and Then

you said young man don't rely on a sword
cause your words will outlive even time
i've counted my blessings
the rest are for you
please listen close for a while

and breathe, breathe deep for me james
don't you feel that you're free now from pain
i've heard about heaven for years
can't be sure where you are
wander on blessed james
i'm fine with you here

i made the mistake once of fearing an end
is this life that we live just the world's accident
not a chance so i move on with a smile
are you surprised where you are

so breathe, breathe deep for me james
don't you feel that you're free now from pain
i've heard about heaven for years
can't be sure where you are
wander on blessed james
i'm fine with you here

i grew up slow on the heels of the rest
left my heart back at home
carried you in my chest
and i don't feel like crying today
why can't we talk for a while

and breathe, breathe deep for me james
don't you feel that you're free now from pain
i've heard about heaven for years
can't be sure where you are
wander on blessed james
i'm fine with you here

you said son, just listen to me
but i'm doing fine, james
so you can sit back and just breathe
and it's time now to let yourself go
hold us close
spin the dream
the curtain will fall but behind it
i see that you're here
