Heaven Knows

Chorus

Why you draw me close, then drift into the haze

Why your gentle truth dey hide inside your craze

Still your future hums beneath the city’s noise

A whispered promise only my heart hears like a voice

And I love you, more than your shadows know

Even when your storms deny the seeds they try to grow

Still my spirit follows where your sunlight flows

One day you’ll rise into the truth only heaven knows

Post-Chorus

Oh na na, oh na na, only heaven knows

Oh na na, oh na na, where your river flows

Verse 2

Evening drops like velvet on your restless, tender ache

Your stories spill like rainfall in the tears your nights remake

Your broken streetlights glimmer like abandoned lines of prayer

But the faith in weary dreamers keeps rewriting something rare

Pre-Chorus

You give me ache and honey, sometimes in the same breath

You resurrect my courage, then you chase it close to death

You are a half-built vision standing fearless in the dust

A wounded vow of glory I’m still choosing to trust

Chorus

Why you call my name, then lose me in your maze

Why your mercy hide inside your harder days

Still I glimpse your dawn behind your darkest shows

A quiet fire building in the places no one knows

And I love you, more than your history shows

Even when your wild edges cut too close

Still my heart returns to where your river glows

One day you’ll rise into the truth only heaven knows

Post-Chorus

Oh na na, oh na na, only heaven knows

Oh na na, oh na na, where your river flows

Bridge

If you fall, I go mend your seam

Your wahala no fit scatter my dream

Your fire dey scorch, but na there I find grace

Like raindrops wey shine for a storm-torn face

You fit break me, you fit lift me

You be bitter, you be sweet, but you still fit me

If you grow, I go grow with you

If you shine, I go shine with you

Chorus

City of my pulse, you hold my ache and glow

A restless place my spirit still calls home

And I love you, deep in my marrow’s hold

Even when your truths come sharp and cold

Still my hope is waiting where your promise grows

One day you’ll rise into the truth only heaven knows

Post-Chorus

Oh na na, oh na na, Morning cracks the sky open on a city that never sleeps,

I walk through broken pavements where your hidden memory keeps.

Your heartbeat hums beneath me like a choir under strain,

A tenderness that heals me, then turns around and leaves a stain.

You scatter light like diamonds in a river made of smoke,

And dreams hang on your power lines like half-believed hopes.

You pull me in with sweetness, then you test the way I bend,

A bruised and beautiful longing I can’t pretend to end.

Why you draw me close, then Morning cracks the sky open on a city that never sleeps,

I walk through broken pavements where your hidden memory keeps.

Your heartbeat hums beneath me like a choir under strain,

A only heaven knows

only heaven knows

only heaven knows

only heaven knows

oh yeah

oh yeah

oh yeah

only heaven nows me, then turns around the city’s noise,

A whispered promise only my heart hears like a voice.

And I love you, more than your shadows know,

Even when your storms deny the seeds they try to grow.

Still my only heaven knows

only heaven knows

only heaven knows

only heaven knows

oh yeah

oh yeah

oh yeah

only heaven nows
