- Heaven LyricsWill you recognize me
In those flashing lights?
I try to keep my heart beat
But I can't get it right
Will you recognize 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 recognize me
When I'm stealing from a car
You're not gonna like me
I'm nothing like before
Will you recognize me
When I lose another friend
Will you learn to leave me
Or give me one more try again
Oh heaven, oh heaven
I waike with good intentions
But the day it always lasts too long
Then I'm gone
Oh heaven, oh heaven
I waike 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]
In those flashing lights?
I try to keep my heart beat
But I can't get it right
Will you recognize 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 recognize me
When I'm stealing from a car
You're not gonna like me
I'm nothing like before
Will you recognize me
When I lose another friend
Will you learn to leave me
Oh heaven, oh heaven
I waike with good intentions
But the day it always lasts too long
Then I'm gone
Oh heaven, oh heaven
I waike 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]

Every one deserve a 2nd change. And we are no body to judge because i believe there's people out there who have done worst things and they still look for God's forgive.

She lost someone or something in her life and she's suffering from some sort of addiction to fill the void and she's longing for acceptance.

This song is about people having to deal with different challenges on a daily basis- whether they are rich or poor. So one wonders if they feel so unaccepted on earth, will they be accepted Above...
