Oh Adeline

As we lay there in the dark, you said you could hear my heart

Then you started to cry cause one day I'm gonna die



When the body slows

What the heart just knows

Is that the soul lets go

Where does it go?

I don't know, Oh...



Now I don't believe in Jesus as anything but a man

I worry that religion is doing less good than bad

And I know that that makes a lot of good people mad



What the heart just knows

You feel it in your bones

Is that the soul lets go

Where does it go?

I don't know, Oh...



And I'm scared that when they call me up

Will I have done enough?

I cannot see how



But as we lay there in the dark

Darlin' I could hear your heart pound

And I know that without that sound

Mine... would probably give out



When the body slows

What the heart just knows

Is that the soul lets go

Where does it go?  Oh...

I could get down on my knees but I don't know, Oh...

And you don't know, and no one knows

I just don't know...
