Emeli Sandé - Heaven Lyrics






Will you recognise me
In the flashing lights?
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 wake with good intentions
But the day it always lasts too long
Then I'm gone
Oh heaven, oh heaven
I wake 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
Or give me one more try again?

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

    Something’s gone inside me and I can’t get it back

  11. �.... A....

    I have loved this song since I was a little toddler!!

  12. l.... ....

    Song is ok but the lyrics are horrible. Singing about Heaven and just saying I don't care I'm gonna live like a horrible person anyway. "Stealing from the poor". "Lose another friend". Yeah. You'll definitely lose all your friends if you're a toxic person living horribly stealing from the poor. Don't get me wrong, she does have a great voice tho but the lyrics are horrible. Kinda want a moving, emotional, meaningful song when you sing like that with the beat and the song is titled "Heaven". You'd think it was but the lyrics are about a horrible person.

    l.... ....

    Point of song -------->
    you

    I didn’t know the meaning of this song until I lost my grandmother. It speaks volumes. An I weep whenever I hear it. We lack talented artists who bring meaning to this industry, we need more people like Emile Sande. The woman with the voice of angel

    i dont believe the total cd production quality does this womans voice any justice,my i love to hear her sing but whats missing,i just dont know what the cd is lacking,same feeling when i played leona lewis's 2nd cd i think it was,boy they botched a voice again by this cheap hanus music,please forgive me for saying this,but i guess some voices are just to good to be sold.......
