Heaven

Ed Sheeran · Other Songs - Ed Sheeran

Will you recognise me, in the flashing lights

I try to keep my heart beat, but I can't get it right

Will you recognise me, when I'm laying on my back

Something's gone inside me, and it 'aint coming back, now



Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wait with good intention, now

But the day, it always lasts too long, mm, then I'm gone

Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wait with good intention, now

But the day, it always lasts too long, woah

Then I'm gone (x7) woo woo woo wooo



Will you recognise me, when I'm stealing from the poor

You're not gonna' like me, no I'm nothing like before, wow

And will you recognise me, when I lose another friend

Will you learn to leave me, or give me one more try again



Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wait with good intention, now

But the day, it always lasts too long, woah, then I'm gone

Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wait with good intention, now

But the day, it always lasts too long, now

Then I'm gone (x7) now woo woo woo wooo



Baby be mine, now, mm, mm, mmm



Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wait with good intention, now

But the day, it always lasts too long, mm, then I'm gone

Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wait with good intention, now

But the day, it always lasts too long, wow

Then I'm gone (x19)



Baby be mine, oh, woah, wow
