Fortunately Gone Lyrics
[Verse]
I wait for you in Heaven
On this perfect string of love
And drink your soup of magpies
In a pottery bowl that looks as I am now
Brown and round and warm
[Chorus]
Chime on the rain
Wet an ankle, toes or two
Sweetly as it drops upon your head
Just like it did today
Fortunately gone
Ba-ba-ba-ba
I wait for you
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Chime on rain
Wet an ankle, toes or two
Sweetly as it drops upon your head
Just like it did today
Fortunately gone
Ba-ba-ba-ba
I wait for you
[Outro]
Fortunately gone
Ba-ba-ba-ba
I wait for you
