Heaven knows why I'm left here in this place

With the sun up in my eyes

Symbols of the morning comin' on

With a 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 news come on the radio

About the laughing disaster plane (?)

I'd already heard before

Baby, two years ago


Soyuz 2 had just returned

Now it seemed just like a dream

'Cos I'd already seen it

On my TV screen


Now I can see all these conflicts goin' on

But you think, you can show some faith

Just likto you a stand in ovation

When I'm dead and gone
