Emeli Sandé - Heaven Lyrics

Will you recognise me
In the flashing light?
I try to keep my heart beat
But I can't get it right

Will you recognise me
When I'm lying on my back?
Something's gone inside me
And I can't get it back

Oh heaven, oh heaven
I wait with good intentions
But the day it always lasts too long
Then I'm gone
Oh heaven, oh heaven
I wait with good intentions
But the day it always lasts too long

Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
[x2]

Will you recognise me
When I'm stealing from the poor?
You're not gonna like me
I'm nothing like before.

Will you recognise me
When I lose another friend?
Will you learn to leave me?
Oh, give me one more try again

Oh heaven, oh heaven
I wait with good intentions
But the day it always lasts too long
Then I'm gone
Oh heaven, oh heaven
I wait with good intentions
But the day it always lasts too long

Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
[x2]

Oh heaven, oh heaven
I wait with good intentions
[x3]

You say that you're away
I try but always break
'Cause the day always lasts too long

Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone

Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone

Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
[x2]
