Lyrics
Dear 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.
Its loud enough to hear, its loud enough to fear
Its loud enough to hear, you told me
So you shot the gun and missed
And never thought it would be like this
So you shot the gun and missed
Forever
A house of cardboard and pretty bride
Plenty of things to hold my pride, dear heaven
I tried my best, she lost me
I'm holding out for you, like you told me to
I'm holding out for you like you told me
You told me to never leave, you told me you hated me
You told me to never leave, never
A house of cardboard and a pretty bride
And plenty of things to hold my pride, dear heaven
I tried my best, she lost me
The more you took away, the more I had enough
The more you took away, the more I had enough
The more you took away, the more I had enough
The more you took away, the more I had enough
The more you took away, the more I had enough
The more you took away, the more I had enough
A house of cardboard and a pretty bride
And plenty of things to hold my pride, dear heaven
A house of cardboard and a pretty bride
And plenty of things to hold my pride, dear heaven
I tried my best, dear heaven
I tried my best
