Letter Never Sent [Live][*]

R.E.M. was an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills and drummer Bill Berry. One of the first popular alternative rock bands, R.E.M. gained early attention due to Buck's ringing, arpeggiated guitar style and Stipe's unclear vocals. R.E.M. released its first single, "Radio Free Europe", in 1981 on the independent record label Hib-Tone. The single was followed by the Chronic Town EP in 1982, the band's first release on I.R.S.

It's been pretty simple so far
Vacation in Athens is calling me
And knock, knock, knock on wood
I thought I'd left you behind

Heaven is yours, heaven is yours
Heaven is yours where I live

The thought of the catacombs
Left my soul at home
This letter never sent
And it's so far, it's so dark, I'm so lost

Heaven is yours, heaven is yours
Heaven is yours where I live
(Another story, another story for a while, someone show me)
When I'm moving too fast
Where is my new address

The water is evening now
The catacombs are filling in
If my soul was made of stone
No, not, not so dark, dark
And it's so far, it's so dark, I'm so lost
And it's so far, it's so far, it's so far

Heaven is yours, heaven is yours
Heaven is yours where I live
(Another story, another story for a while, someone show me)
Heaven is yours, heaven is yours
Heaven is yours where I live
(Another story, another story for a while, someone show me)
