HEAVEN SHOULDN’T HAVE YOU

[Verse 1]

If I could paint my canvas

So you understand it

Want a love that’s lasting

Like my Mam and Dad did

Life didn’t let them have it

Life let them have it

Heaven shouldn’t have you

Heaven shouldn’t have you

Know you didn’t mean it

I wish it didn't happen

Heaven shouldn’t have you

Should I be so candid?

I don’t feel abandoned

I got love around me

But this isn’t Kansas

Nah this isn’t Kansas

Feel like I abandoned

People in my family

Hope you know I love you

I’ll call you when I’ve landed

I just couldn’t stand it

All that stress around me

Nah I couldn’t stand it

Hope you understand me

[Verse 2]

Open up my bandwidth

Put your arms around me

Wanna fill my hands with

Those that make me happy

I’ve got pieces missin’

You’re the one I match with

Filling up my hands with

Love that’s everlastin’

Wanna be a man but

Sometimes I can’t manage

Hope you understand it

I know you understand it

Heaven wouldn’t have me

Heaven wouldn’t have me

Hope I make you happy

I know I make you happy

[Verse 3]

You’re my one and only

You’re my one and that’s it

Heaven couldn’t have ya

Even if they asked me

Heaven shouldn’t have ya

Heaven shouldn’t have ya

Heaven shouldn’t have ya

Heaven shouldn’t have ya

[Outro - Sammy Copley]

By God, I’d love to love it here

The only home I’ve known

And sure, I’d miss the evening mist

And glistening cobblestones

But it gets late

At ten to eight

And leaving’s in my bones

By God, I’d love to love it here

The only home I’ve known
