Still Down Here

St. Peter says "You picked a real good day"
 Your lungs fill back up with air and your worries float away
 Jesus smiles, He is a handsome man
 He's taller than you thought, eyes so warm, reaching out his hand
 In the Holy Kingdom angels sing a hymn
 For all your good behavior they handed you your crown and wings
 You don't feel the sorrow, there's no pain no fear
 Don't forget about me, don't forget about me
 I'm still down here
 Everyone knew, you were on your way
 Earlier than expected, said the papers in both places that day
 You saw your family, some for the very first time
 There were smiling faces, strawberry cake and a welcome home sign
 In the Holy Kingdom angels sing a hymn
 For all your good behavior they handed you your crown and wings
 You don't feel the sorrow, there's no pain or fear
 Don't forget about me, don't forget about me
 I'm still down
 Here in the shadow-land, here where there's doubt
 Here where we must learn to live, with what we live without
 Clouds of silver and streets of gold
 Where no shadow is cast, there's nobody growing old
 You find some old friends and take a walk around
 But believe them when they say - "I tell you one thing,
 just don't look down"
 In the Holy Kingdom angels sing a hymn
 Stay there above the clouds now, don't ever shed one tear
 Don't forget about me, don't forget about me
 I'm still down here
