Lyrics

Heidi Has Got Her Gun

Lyric & Music: Kevin Reardon; Copyright 2022

Here we are full of life; we risk misfortune chasing shadows of the night
In our hearts we are no longer what we’ve been; we have come a long way, still we see

Heidi has got her gun; here she comes; Heidi has got her gun; here she comes
Heidi has got her gun; here she comes

We know the storm may not begin until we reach the time when we hope we’re at an end
Seeking treasures lying still beneath ground, we have come a long way, but now we’ve found

Heidi has got her gun; here she comes; Heidi has got her gun; here she comes
Heidi has got her gun; here she comes

I sit and watch the river run, but rivers do run dry
And birds can never reach the sun, no matter where they fly
A stitch in time, a memory, a specter we can’t forget but it’s dying like the sun beneath the sky

So, hold on to that dying day; you’re not alone … believe it
You’ve been lost and crossed in the Central Office but soon it goes away
And you’re among those who see it

Up on a hill with your eyes you’ll find the light; don’t let your dreams bring those teardrops down They’re calling out; the sun’s not gone hey hey hey
Cause you know, in their eyes, you can find the way you are
Beyond the years, there are no feelings left to hold you down; you’re still in love
But guard yourself; Heidi has got her gun
ot
Just look to the morning that dawns in your head
You’re searching for someone; you think they’re undead
But now the raven is flying on high; you found the answer; does this mean good-bye to life

Where do they fly? They’re only there for wanting needs and maybe down the road you’ll find
Your fear, sitting in sight beyond the score of many lives there seems to be a shining light

So, I’m writing this song for the chosen ones who’ve left and gone
Their memory lives on in the morning light but if we cannot right their wrong
I wonder how we’ll find the strength to carry on

Don’t dry your tears; let them remind you hate and fear don’t live alone
Hold your dreams deep inside you; don’t let those years become unknown

Now it’s clear for those forgotten; hope is here to carry on
Time will fly; the misbegotten can’t deny what happened long ago

Up on a hill with your eyes you’ll find the light; don’t let your dreams bring those teardrops down They’re calling out; the sun’s not gone hey hey hey
Cause you know, in their eyes, you can find the way you are
Beyond the years, there are no feelings left to hold you down; you’re still in love
But guard yourself; Heidi has got her gun
