Lyrics
Heaven On Earth (The Things We've Got To Do)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You know that love's the answer
The greatest ruling force
That carries you forever beyond the farthest cause
Oh, will we ever learn the lessons of the world
Instead repeating history without a care how much we hurt
Sometimes it seems that we will never ever understand
The things we've got to do
Dance like no-one is watching
Love like you'll never be hurt
The things we've got to do
Sing like no-one is listening
And live like it's your last day on Earth
The things we've got to do
If nothing lasts forever that doesn't mean it's cheap
It's only the beginning of something rather deep
We're trying to survive, we're always on the run
The sky's in ever blue but the Sun is long, long gone
A stranger at the corner pretending to be me
Could it really be?
