Heaven knows I've tried, but nothing will give way
I always see your face at the start of every day
You always set the rhythm that makes my body ache
Like mortar from a wall it's just your back you break
Heaven knows I've tried to treat you better
Heaven knows I've tried to give a little bit more
How much will it take to stay together
Heaven knows we've tried but we drifted apart
Right from the start
You always broke the border, it was always there to break
I gave you all loving, as much as you could take
But still there's something missing
It's gone missing deep inside
My words don't compensate at all, for the all the nights we died
Heaven knows I've tried to treat you better
Heaven knows I've tried to give a little bit more
How much will it take to stay together
Heaven knows I've tried but we drifted apart
Right from the start
A love you can't have
A love you can't face
A love you broke once
A love you broke twice
What seemed like love
Felt like pain
Everywhere you moved
It's gonna to be the same
Blame it on people
Blame it on the cards
Whichever thing you chose
It's going to be hard
Heaven knows I've tried to treat you better
Heaven knows I've tried to give a little bit more
How much will it take to stay together
Heaven knows I've tried but we drifted apart
Right from the start
Heaven knows I've tried to treat you better
Heaven knows I've tried to give a little bit more
How much will it take to stay together
Heaven knows I've tried but we drifted apart
Right from the start
