Five for Fighting
Heaven Knows
[Verse 1]
There's no time to waste
In this famous goodbye
There's angels landin' on the shore
So lay down with me
Let the river run dry
It's Sunday in the six-day war

[Pre-Chorus]
Smile, darling, don't be sad
Stars are gonna shine tonight

[Chorus]
Tell me where the good men go
Before I wash away
Walk me down the old brick road
So I can die where I met you
Hold me like we're goin' home
Turn your tears to rain
Bury me, beautiful
Heaven knows how I loved you

[Verse 2]
There's a children's choir in perfect parade
Singin' like they found the Lord
I can't say it, they'll let me in
But we can dance the way we did
High above the seventh floor
[Pre-Chorus]
Smile, darling, don't be sad
Stars are gonna shine tonight

[Chorus]
Tell me where the good men go
Before I wash away
Walk me down the old brick road
So I can die where I met you
Hold me like we're goin' home
Turn your tears to rain
Bury me, beautiful
Heaven knows how I loved you
And how I loved you

[Bridge]
Father, hear your Son
Do the good die young?
Did I raise you up, raise you up
Make you proud?
Let the sun go out
Tear the bridges down
I'm on my way, on my way
I'm goin' home, home

[Chorus]
Tell me where the good men go
Before I wash away
Walk me down the old brick road
So I can die where I met you
Hold me like we're goin' home
Turn your tears to rain
Bury me, beautiful
Heaven knows how I loved you
Tell me where the good men go
Before I wash away
Walk me down the old brick road
So I can die where I met you
Hold me like we're goin' home
Turn your tears to rain
Bury me, beautiful
Heaven knows how I loved you
[Outro]
Heaven knows
