Heaven or Austin "G"
Written by: Doug Moreland

Some say that heaven is a place among the stars
I swear that heaven is wherever you are
I’d love to see Austin
I’d love to sing my songs
but you love this small town too much to come along

     I’m between heaven and Austin
     Left with a choice between
     The love of my life and the life that I love
     And since you’re making me choose
     Tell you what I’m going to do
     Looks like it’s Austin over you

Some say that leaving is a good place to start
I swear that leaving is breaking my heart
but I’m going to go to Austin
I’m going to sing my songs
but your stubbornness won’t let you come along

     I’m between heaven and Austin
     Left with a choice between
     The love of my life and the life that I love
     And since you’re making me choose
   Tell you what I’m going to do
     Looks like it’s Austin over you

"Son, live your life" is what them coffee-drinking old men tell me
"There’s plenty of time later to raise a family"
It’s hard to make a choice
When all I hear is your voice

     Here between heaven and Austin
     Left with a choice between
     The love of my life and the life that I love
     And since you’re making me choose
     Tell you what I’m going to do
     Looks like it’s Austin over you

Some say that heaven is a place among the stars
I swear that heaven is singing for you in an Austin bar
