Leo Sayer - Heaven Knows lyrics

Nowadays they want a solider fighter
Not a preacher writer or a mystery man
Somebody told me that the future's brighter
Make tomorrow lighter put it in your hands
But, I don't wanna cry anymore try anymore
Die anymore heaven knows I'm impatient
I can't control these hands of fate
Heaven knows I'm still waiting
Are they too soon or am I too late
Oh is that so only heaven knows
Well I wanna know tell me is that so
Only heaven knows heaven only knows
Here come the Romeos the brave
I told you so's
The travelling GI joes with come on lines
Here come the great defenders
Who think they can befriend us
Why do we all pretend to know these guys
Well I don't wanna wait anymore
Be late anymore hate anymore
Heaven knows I'm impatient
I can't control these hands of fate
Heaven knows I'm still waiting
Are they too soon or am I too late
Oh is that so only heaven knows
Well I wanna know tell me is that so
Only heaven knows heaven only knows
What a strange design
It's a planet out of time
Someone tell me why is the world like that

Oh heaven knows i said oh heaven knows
Heaven knows I'm impatient
I can't control these hands of fate
Heaven knows I'm still waiting
Are they doo soon or am I too late
You resign yourself to a simple fate
To live your life by the sell by date
Haul yourself up the same old hill
Watch the world from you windowsill
We always want what we can't afford
So we listen out for the missing chord
The chord is there and it's in your mind
So why do you make it so hard to find
