Heaven Knows (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Jimmy’s in the back
With a pocket of high
If you listen close
You can hear him cry

Oh, Lord, heaven knows
We belong way down below
Sing it
Oh, Lord, heaven knows
We belong way down below
Way down below
Way down below

Judy’s in the front seat
Picking up trash
Living on the dole
Gotta make that cash

Won’t be pretty
Won’t be sweet
She’s just sitting there on her feet singin’

Oh, Lord, heaven knows
We belong way down below
Go
Oh, lord, heaven knows
We belong way down below

Sing it
Oh, Lord, tell us so
We belong way down below
Oh, oh, tell us so
We belong way down below
Way down below
Way down below
Way down below
Way down below

I’ve had better days, man
I’ve seen better days
I’ve had better ways, man
I know better ways

One, two, three and four
The devil’s knocking at your door
Caught in the eye of a dead man’s lie
Start your life with your head held high
Now you’re on your knees
With your head hung low
Big man tells you where to go
Tell him it’s good
Tell him okay
Don’t do a God damn thing they say

Oh, Lord, heaven knows
We belong way down below
Oh, Lord, tell us so
We belong way down below
Way down below
Way down below
Way down below
Way down below

I’ve seen better ways, man
I know better ways
I’ve seen better days, man
I’ve had better days

Gina’s in the back
With a pocket of high
If you listen close
You can hear the crying

Oh, Lord, heaven knows
We belong way down below
Oh, Lord, tell us so
We belong way down below (sing it)
Oh, Lord, heaven knows
We belong way down below
Oh, Lord, tell us so
We belong way down below

Way down below
Way down below
Way down below
Way down below

Heaven Knows (Letra)

(difford/tilbrook)
Album version

You’re no dame, i’m no duke
Somehow love is a fluke
We’ve survived thick and thin
Taking knocks on the chin
In the eyes of the sad
We may be barking mad
But the truth has been ceased
We are like chalk and cheese
You wind me up and i drive you mad
It’s a fact of life, it goes hand in hand
And i know that look, it’s read like a book
And i realize

I don’t care what the world has to say
You should know that i love you
I love you
I love you today

When the boat starts to rock
Then my ears start to block
All the words that you say
Through the night, through the day
Where there’s mud there is grass
And the storm soon will pass
Then it’s back to the norm
All the cold turns to warm

Sometimes i think life crawls like a snail
And all of our dreams become the wind in your sails
Without wealth it’s true, who cares what you do
And i realize

I can feel the eyes behind us as we walk
I can see the ears that listen when we talk

Single version

Warning: these lyrics are unconfirmed and may be inaccurate. they represent the best attempt at deciphering the song we have yet to see.

You’re no work of art
But then nor am i
Together in the frame
We’re here you and i
In this happy home
Life is set in stone
That can melt like ice
I don’t care what the world has to say
You should know that i love you
I love you today

We can’t agree
The boat starts to rock
I complain when it rains
And you when it’s hot
What was black is white
What was day is night
And what is is not

I can feel the eyes behind us as we walk
I can see the ears that listen when we talk

the day I learn to fly , I’m never coming down
on perfect I’ll rise through the layers of the clouds

and from there I see the neon grids of cities
and six million people that keep their fires lit

I threw a party in my name
but the hours crawled by and no one came
so I bowed my head and I prayed for wings
to take me from this place… from you

I see myself inside, you dream the dreams that I do,
you’re still searching for these answers, they’re not inside your wrist

and from there I see the neon grids of cities
and six million people that keep their fires lit

I threw a party in my name
but the hours crawled by and no one came
so I bowed my head and I prayed for wings
to take me from this place… from you

I close my eyes as the curtains draw,
I thought I heard your voice but I thought wrong,
‘cause you’re not there anymore,
no you’re not there anymore

and so I lift my chin and the show goes on,
the sky is listening, the stars all sing along,
but you’re not there anymore,
and I just can’t care anymore

Heaven Knows (Letra)

Good lord above i’m falling in love
I’m falling like a heavy black rain
And i know how it feels to be head over heels
I’m falling like an avalanche again
As beautiful as you are
As elusive as the stars
As raging and as wild as the sea
As eternal as the moon
As mysterious as the womb
You mean everything to me
And heaven knows i’m so wrapped up in you
So tangled up in everything you do
And heaven knows it always seem to be
More like a curse than than a blessing a blessing for me

Well i have to profess i’m so obsessed
And it’s taking over everything i do
And forever more like waves upon the shore
I’m drowning at the very thought of you
As black as the blues
As tender as a bruise
You give me everything i ask you for
As delicious as the pain that comes slowly and again
I take everything you give and still want more
And heaven knows i’m so wrapped up in you
So tangled up in everything you do
And heaven knows it always seem to be
More like a curse than than a blessing a blessing for me

As delicate as the wings
Of the butterfly summer brings
As sweet as the honey of the bee
As miserable as regret
A betrayal i can’t forget
You are everything to me
And heaven knows i’m so wrapped up in you
So tangled up in everything you do
And heaven knows it always seem to be
More like a curse than than a blessing, a blessing for me

Baby please,
Baby please don’t take your love from me
I am yours forever more,
‘till eternity
Silently please, listen to the words i say well
I’m not talking just for play, listen to me please

Heaven knows
It’s not the way it should be
Heaven knows
It’s not the way it could be
Don’t you know
There’s no need to leave

Heaven knows
I never wanna leave you
Heaven knows
I only wanna please you
Don’t you know
Love is what i need

Down inside,
Don’t get caught with foolish pride
Put all the other things aside,
There’s only you and me
Believe in us,
We were always meant to be
Me for you and you for me,
‘till eternity

Heaven knows
It’s not the way it should be
Heaven knows
It’s not the way it could be
Don’t you know
There’s no need to leave

Heaven knows
I only wanna love you
Heaven knows
I never wanna lose you
Don’t you know
Love is meant to be

Heaven knows
It’s not the way it should be
And it’s no use now
So stop with the pretending
So come on child, and hear me
When i cry…

Deep, deep in our hearts, strangers apart,
Oh please come back to me, no more to leave, never to grieve

I give my world to you, send, send her away to her grieving,
I will never set you free, no more, no, no more a life without meaning,
You and i will fly away to love, in my mind,
Love, in my soul, i just can’t let go,
Sadness fills my life, oh my fruitless plight,
Only heaven knows,

Tears, tears in the night, sorrow take flight,
Oh please come back to me, each we believe, never to grieve,

I give my world to you, send, send her away to her grieving,
I will never set you free, no more, no, no more a life without meaning,
You and i will fly to love, in my mind, love, in my soul,
I just can’t let go, sadness fills my life,
Oh my fruitless plight, only heaven knows,

Sadness fills my life,
Sadness fills my life, oh,
Sadness fills my life,
Sadness fills my life, oh,oh,oh wow, oh

Send, oh send her away to her grieving,
You and i will fly away to love, in my mind,

Tears run dry on a young man’s face
Feel the glow of a warm embrace
Been on a boat to the
edge of somewhere
Searched for you almost everywhere
No more hills left for me to bear
Cause now I’m almost there

But baby loves’ growing much stronger
From the day that you said
you were gonna be mine
From the way I was lead into your mind

Everything comes to those who wait
Like a winter for spring
And the beauty it brings
And everyone searches
For the perfect one
As Heaven Knows
As Heaven Knows

If you believe, like you know that I do
You will see I’m the one for you
Never forget when I take your hand
At last, I’m here, can’t you understand
So bring on the night and I’ll make it right
Bring a dull day and I’ll make it bright
Cause now we’re almost there

But baby loves’ growing much stronger
From the day that you said you were
gonna be mine
From the day I was lead into your mind
Maybe love’s making me stronger
From the day that you said you were
gonna be mine
From the day I was lead into your mind

CHORUS to fade

Heaven Knows (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

I have tried

To make it on my own

And i have survived

But surviving is no rival

For your love

* now i know that it’s true

There is no way i can’t be

Without you

Heaven knows that it’s true

I can’t live in this world

Without you

Time you’ll find

Can change your mind

My eyes once could see

Only want now to believe

And thought we’ve tried

I think we’d better face it

A love like ours

You know you can’t replace it

(* repeat)

Without you

(* repeat)

I wonder if there’s one chance

It could be

You can’t live in this world

Without me

Without me

Writers: leo sayer & alan tarney

Nowadays they want a soldier fighter
Not a preacher writer or a mystery man
Somebody told me that the future’s brighter
Make tomorrow lighter put it in your hands

But i don’t wanna cry anymore
Try anymore — die anymore

Heaven knows i’m impatient
I can’t control these hands of fate
Heaven knows i’m still waiting
Are they too soon or am i too late

Oh is that so
Only heaven knows
Well i wanna know
Tell me is that so
Only heaven knows
Heaven only knows

Here come the romeos the brave i told you so’s
The travelling g.i. joes with come on lines
Here come the great defenders
Wh think they can befriend us
Why do we all pretend to know these guys

Well i don’t wanna wait anymore
Be late anymore — hate anymore

Heaven knows i’m impatient
I can’t control these hands of fate
Heaven knows i’m still waiting
Are they too soon or am i too late

Oh is that so
Only heaven knows
Well i wanna know
Tell me is that so
Only heaven knows
Heaven only knows

What a strange design
It’s a planet out of time
Someone tell me why
Is the world like that

Oh heaven knows
I said oh heaven knows

Heaven knows i’m impatient
I can’t control these hands of fate
Heaven knows i’m still waiting
Are they too soon or am i too late

You resign yourself to a simple fate
To live your life by the sell by date
Haul yourself up the same old hill
Watch the world from your windowsill
We always want what we can’t afford
So we listen out for the missing chord
The chord is there and it’s in your mind
So why do you make it so hard to find
