Heaven knows why I'm left here in this place
With the sun up in my eyes
Symbols of the [bad word]  on
With the love that's got too strong to hold
If I'd been so much wiser then
I would have known which path to choose
Heaven help the lucky one
Heaven help you

Heard the [bad word] on the radio
About the loves and the flame
I'd already heard before
Baby, two years ago

Say it's too hard to return
Now it seemed just like a dream
I saw and already seen it
On my TV screen

Now I could see all these conflicts goin' on
Don't you think you could show some thanks
I just might give you a standin' ovation
When I'm here and gone
