Heaven Knows

Leo Sayer · Other Songs - Leo Sayer

nowadays they want a soldier fighternot a preacher

writer or a mystery mansomebody told me that the future's

brightermake tomorrow lighter put it in your hands

but I don't wanna cry anymoretry anymore -- die anymore

heaven knows I'm impatientI can't control these hands

of fateheaven knows I'm still waitingare they too soon or am I too late

oh is that soonly heaven knowswell I wanna knowtell

me is that soonly heaven knowsheaven only knows

here come the romeos the brave I told you so'sthe travelling

g.i. joes with come on lineshere come the great defenderswh

think they can befriend uswhy do we all pretend to know these guys

well I don't wanna wait anymorebe late anymore -- hate anymore



heaven knows I'm impatientI can't control these hands

of fateheaven knows I'm still waitingare they too soon or am I too late

oh is that soonly heaven knowswell I wanna knowtell

me is that soonly heaven knowsheaven only knows

what a strange designit's a planet out of timesomeone

tell me whyis the world like that

oh heaven knowsI said oh heaven knows

heaven knows I'm impatientI can't control these hands

of fateheaven knows I'm still waitingare they too soon or am I too late

you resign yourself to a simple fateto live your life

by the sell by datehaul yourself up the same old hillwatch

the world from your windowsillwe always want what we

can't affordso we listen out for the missing chordthe

chord is there and it's in your mindso why do you make it so hard to find
