lyrics

It was Utah, you and me
A minivan and mattress in 2016
I just wanted to keep going
To run away, get married or something
I had faith in you but there’s no faith in me
We turned the engine off in Park City
And in the house of God you laid with me
Cause I love you, who cares about blasphemy

Until now, I’d never been to church
But maybe God could make us work
So pretend that Jesus isn’t watching
I said my prayers through dirty talking
Now I know that Heaven’s in your arms
How do I feel? Is this real?
You’ve got my whole entire heart
And I’ve never been a believer
But tonight I’m gonna start

Remember August in Arizona?
Our scene just like fair Verona
In the Grand Canyon, holding my hand
And two rainbows across the sky
Every night no holding back
The curtains made of paper maps
So please do not get on that plane
I’m sick and you’re my paper crane

Until now, I’d never been to church
But maybe God could make us work
So pretend that Jesus isn’t watching
I said my prayers through dirty talking
Now I know that Heaven’s in your arms
How do I feel? Is this real?
You’ve got my whole entire heart
And I’ve never been a believer
But tonight I’m gonna start

Down the highway, going fast
I’d do anything to make it last
When you’re at the wheel, I’ve no hand to hold
So instead, I clasp my own
I’m calling on a higher power
Let me have just one more hour
But all my prayers went unanswered
And now this loss eats me like cancer

Until you, I’d never been to church
For a while there, we really worked
You were my angel, always watching
In my dreams still hear you talking
Now I know that Heaven’s in your arms
It hurts to feel, God ain’t real
You’re still my whole entire heart
And I’ll never be a believer
But I’ll miss playing the part
