What Was Heaven?
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.
I can't run to the light
It's you that I need
I could cut myself with a knife
For you babe and bleed
What was heaven without you babe
Now everything is complete
I sometimes wish it's a novel
And I'd see you in the street
All the day is the night
But somehow I just can't sleep
Somehow though it don't seem right
I had you but love didn't keep
What was heaven without you babe
Now everything is complete
I sometimes wish it's a novel
And I'd see you in the street
Sometimes I hear your voice
Echoing it makes me cry
I don't seem to have the choice
I want you but I don't wanna die
What was heaven without you babe
Now everything is complete
I sometimes wish it's a novel
And I'd see you in the street
