Heaven

Well I've been working in this field of hopes and dreams

Sowing rows of promises 'til I'm down to my last seeds

Now only rain or faith can see them through

And build me a rainbow that leads me back to you

You can't know how hard I've tried

Cause you weren't there the times I've cried

And you can't know how bad I felt

Cause you weren't there the times I knelt

Down on my knees and said a prayer

That I'd awake and you'd be there

But by the time my arms reach heaven

You know it seems like you're heaven's away

I've been trying to hold this love between us

Forgive at a time when loneliness can tear two souls apart

But all the words we use to hurt each other

Will never lose their meaning 'til we find a better place to start

You can't know how hard I've tried

Cause you weren't there the times I've cried

And you can't know how bad I felt

Cause you weren't there the times I knelt

Down on my knees and said a prayer

That I'd awake and you'd be there

But by the time my arms reach heaven

You know it seems like you're heaven's away

You can't know how hard I've tried

Cause you weren't there the times I've cried

And you can't know how bad I felt

Cause you weren't there the times I knelt

Down on my knees and said a prayer

That I'd awake and you'd be there

But by the time my arms reach heaven

You know it seems like you're heaven's away
