Orange & Lemons – Heaven Knows lyrics
There are times
When I'm lyin' in my bed
How I pellow and cry from this stupid get
And my eyes are like windshields on a rainy day
Almost rubbed-out, swelling
As I keep on
Diggin' my face
In these cold hands of mine

Heaven knows how embittered, I am

Cause this angel has flown away from me
Leaving me in drunken misery
I should have clipped her wings
And made her mine
For all eternity

Now this angel has flown away from me
I thought I had the strength to set her free
I did what I did
Because I love her so
Will she ever find her way
Back home to me


I'm so tired
I feel like catching forty-winks
Being up all night in this elbow-room
That puts me in a trance
Where hopes and dreams come true

Now my lips are burning
And my eyes are hurting
From these fumes I make
Still I light another cigarette
Just to pass my time
Oh, heaven knows how embittered, I am

Cause this angel has flown away from me
Leaving me in drunken misery
I should have clipped her wings
And made her mine
For all eternity
Now this angel has flown away from me
I thought I had the strength to set her free
I did what I did
Because I love her so
Will she ever find her way
Back home to me

    For me, the meaning of this song is losing someone very close to your heart. My partner just lost her mom and they were very close. It breaks my heart to see her suffer her loss, this song hits deeper than I thought. This is for someone who lost her unconditional love and the pain will still stay as long as you're alive but only heaven knows how much you're suffering.

    Germaine j *b*n*r*, I am sorry for what I have caused you for the past years we're together. I thought I am your angel when you told me about this song, how fool I am to think that way, I lately realized that you are this angel that left me in drunkem misery. You may not be reading this anymore but I did have my chance now to mourn and feel what you felt before. It was never easy when I know you will never turn back. But I am happy for you now. Maybe during that time, you don't deserve me after all, but at least you will forgive me boi. You take care always. "i know you’ ll meet someone better but would still think of me if he can’ t hold you like I did.
    Would you run back to me? I know this pain shall pass".

    For me, it is a bitter-sweet song. He love his girl so much, he sets her free. Though, he love her and want her to be with him for the rest of their lives, he knows that he is not the man that can make her really happy. So even if he know how painful it is, he sets her free. Because his love for her is not selfish. Confuse lang ako sa mtb. Seems like the girl died, so he won't see her anymore.

    Welp. Reading your comments sure made my day. Imagine this, I just thought I'd google the lyrics for this one so that I could play this in my piano then these putrid crap caught my attention. By putrid crap I mean your retarded comments. Sure, you've all had bad experiences - traumatizing, even! That doesn't make up for the fact that you bastards ruined my Monday morning. Hell, I don't even know if the ones who posted the previous comments will get to read my comment, but, hell! Let a guy vent. I'm guessing pretty much 99% of everyone who've read my comment will hate me for this, but that's just because of your incapability to understand something as profound as this. The message, the tones of regret - you plebeians understand nothing! Stick to just listening and don't bother to interpret something that's light years from your scope. You'll only look like the fools you are. Well then! Ciao!

    This is one of my favorite songs way back in highschool. I don't know but I everytime I play this song, it keeps on reminding me of such things in the past that made me hurt and almost cry. This is song is not to popular unlike any other songs. That's why I am really surprised knowing the only person whom I fell in love knew this song, not just knew but I think this is also one of his favorite songs. If I only have the courage to let him remind of what this songs talks about.

    I like this song since I heard this in his car year from now, I celebrated my valentines alone without him and as I play this song again. I realized how I still suffer when I let him go and grow l, I set him free to achieve his goals, but inside I want him to come back. And I know that heaven knows how I suffer and missed him, he's still my home♥️

    Actually. Nka2relate tlga ako sa kantang toh. Specially ung mahal co. Knowing he is suffering because of kidney failure. He request to me to D. Load this song and when I finally heard this song, my tears just fall down. And realize that he is really depressed about his llness. I decided immediately that I will be his angel for all his life. And I will make him very happy. Even giving my the half of my lifespan I will. Just to be with him.

    Hmm. Actually share ko lang thought ko. Maybe this song. Is like young girl is problemtatic sa love one niya but the gurl has an advicer which like an angel. Young angel na you nay yung advicer at mahl niya yung gurl. Pero nga lang si gurl ay may mhal na iba. So the angel is thinkng how can she set the girl free from the other guy kse nga sinasaktan lng namna sia ng boyfrnd nia db? The angel did everything to her. How can be the angel be with an angel like him. Yun lang.
