Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You laughed at the creek
Called it too small
Said nothing good
Could live behind that wall
But I knew that bend
By the split-rail fence
Where the blackbirds sat
Like they made sense
[Pre-Chorus]
And the paint on the porch
Was peeling slow
But the honeysuckle
Still learned to grow
Right there
[Chorus]
Heaven in the corners
Heaven in the corners
Look again, look again
Heaven in the corners
Heaven in the corners
Where the broken ground says amen
(amen)
[Verse 2]
You chased the maps
With a restless hand
Punched holes in the sky
Just to find dry land
But the old gas station
Had peach crates out
And the man at the counter
Knew your name by heart
[Pre-Chorus]
So don’t call it plain
Don’t call it gone
Some small hard place
Can still hold on
Right there
[Chorus]
Heaven in the corners
Heaven in the corners
Look again, look again
Heaven in the corners
Heaven in the corners
Where the broken ground says amen
(amen)
[Bridge]
Maybe grace wears boots
Maybe gold grows low
In a ditch by the road
Where the dandelions go
If you look too fast
You’ll miss the sign
A holy spark
In a weathered line
[Chorus]
Heaven in the corners
Heaven in the corners
Look again, look again
Heaven in the corners
Heaven in the corners
Where the broken ground says amen
(amen)
