Heaven knows a place within my heart Things I should have told you Before I fell apart

 

Hell I got worries on my mind And I just lie awake at night Dreaming of you

 

Lord knows I'm a total failure Drifting man on the sea But my sinking ship was just made of paper, anyhow

 

And your sweet sympathy Was all that I needed a place to be free Yea, the love in your eyes Was all that I needed to stop asking why

 

Yesterday your circus came to town And I found myself singing Singing with a crowd So I joined the street parade A trooping cavalcade and then I saw you

 

Lordy knows I'm a total failure Drifting man on the sea You came along just in time And healed my mind And all is forgiven

 

And your sweet sympathy Was all that I needed a place to be free Yea, the love in your eyes Was all that I needed to stop asking why
