Heaven Knows Lyrics by Orange & Lemons
Verse 1
There are times when I’m lying in my bed
How I bellow and cry from this stupid get
And my eyes are like windshields on a rainy day
Almost rubbed-out, swelling as I keep on
Pre-Chorus
Dipping my face in these cold hands of mine
Heaven knows how embittered I am
Chorus
‘Cause this angel has flown away from me
Leaving me with drunken misery
I should have clipped her wings and made her mine
For all eternity
Now this angel has flown away from me
Thought I had the strength to set her free
Did what I did because I love her so
Will she ever find her way back home to me? (Oh-oh)
Verse 2
I’m so tired, I feel like catching forty winks
Being up all night in this elbow room that puts me in a trance
Where hopes and dreams come true
Now my lips are burning, and my eyes are hurting
Pre-Chorus
From this fumes I make, still I light another cigarette, just to pass my time
Oh, heaven knows how embittered I am
Chorus
‘Cause this angel has flown away from me
Leaving me with drunken misery
I should have clipped her wings and made her mine
For all eternity
Now this angel has flown away from me
Thought I had the strength to set her free
Did what I did because I love her so
Will she ever find her way back home to me? (Oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
