Lyrics for Heavenly Singles
So Little Deserve
Made a steeple with your fingers
Made a cradle with a piece of string
Made a snowman, made a treehouse
Made a game of everything
But when you, when you grew up
You grew up and forgot what's real
What's precious, not precocious
How being in love with life feels
If I so little deserve you,
Then why have you stayed for so long?
If I so little deserve you,
Then why have you not gone?
Made the girls swoom without thinking
Made this girl begin to wonder why
Made me flowers from crepe paper
I was charmed there for a while
But when you, when you grew up
You grew up and forgot what's true
What's nice, not nauseating
How you once felt how I feel for you
If I so little deserve you,
Then why have you stayed for so long?
If I so little deserve you,
Then why have you not gone?
Cos you may be grown up
And you may be cool
But I may be anything, anything but cruel
So don't ever ask me
Just what you should say
Cos you could say anything, anything, anything
If I so little deserve you,
Then why have you stayed for so long?
If I so little deserve you,
Then why have you not gone?
Our Love Is Heavenly
You said 'Oh, I don't care, do what you want'
Sometimes I don't think you mean this
Cos what I wants to be away from you
Be with another who i miss
Yes its true,
Got a new boy who loves me
I love him too
And our love is heavenly
Yes I do
Love him, anyone can see
So we're through
And now I am gonna leave you
Oh yeah, I have got to leave you
Sorry too
I just have to go, so say goodbye
Never even had to tell you why
I don't even want to make you cry
So don't cry honey, you'll ger over this
Though it may take at least a day
After that time, you will be feeling fine
And you'll be glad I've gone away
Yes its true,
Got a new boy who loves me
I love him too
And our love is heavenly
Yes I do
Love him, anyone can see
So we're through
And now I am gonna leave you
Oh yeah, I have got to leave you
Sorry too
I just have to go, so say goodbye
Never even had to tell you why
I don't even want to make you cry
Yes its true,
Got a new boy who loves me
I love him too
And our love is heavenly
Yes I do
Love him, anyone can see
So we're through
And now I am gonna leave you
Oh yeah, I have got to leave you
Sorry too
I just have to go, so say goodbye
Never even had to tell you why
I don't even want to make you cry
Escort Crash On Marston Street
Oh, hey Robert, you're driving much too fucking fast
I think you ought to go a lot slower
It's a residential zone. Speed limit's thirty miles an hour
Shouldn't be going eighty
Watch out for those ladies!
Watch out for that dog!
Oh no! Hit the brakes!
Your driving mistakes are really
Gonna kill Heavenly,
With terror,
Oh-oh, terrifying me
Ba ba bada ba ba
Escort crash on Marston Street
Ba ba bada ba ba
Mathew, Amy, Rob and Pete
Ba ba bada ba ba
In Heaven, they'll be Heavenly tonight
Hey now, Robert, you happy wit your smashed up car
And your broken neck bone, and your facial wounds?
You've murdered Amelia. Pete can no longer play guitar
And Mathew's brain is damaged. But that's not so different
Could you tell at all?
The kids are happy
With no more boring Heavenly tunes
Rob's killed us
With steering error,
Terrifying me.
Ba ba bada ba ba
Escort crash on Marston Street
Ba ba bada ba ba
Mathew, Amy, Rob and Pete
Ba ba bada ba ba
In Heaven, they'll be Heavenly tonight
I Fell In Love Last Night
When you gave me all that you had (all you had)
When you told me there could never be another
All those times we both cried 'l love you' (I love you)
How can you change from saying your mine
To a sigh, and goodbye.
When you (when you) see me (see me), oh what will you do?
When you (when you) hug me (hug me), oh what will you say?
When I kiss you (I kiss you), why will you never say
you'll stay forever? (forever, forever)
All you have to do to stop my crying
Is to say that you'll be mine
Oh, I fell in love last night
I fell in love last night
I fell in love last night
You were there when I first needed you (needed you)
You were smiling, 'Don't be sad. I'll make you happy.'
Took me out for a walk in the park (in the park)
Said you wanted to show me romance
How's your chance, say you can.
Your letters seem sad (seem so sad)
When they used to bring smiles (oh such smiles)
When you meet me by chance (meet by chance)
When you meet me by chance (meet by chance)
Will you see that you're mine
I fell in love last night
Wrap My Arms Around Him
When I look back to taht night, I wonder whether
If I ahd the chance, would I still do the same again?
But I know held in the arms that I remember
I could not avoid dissolving back into a friend
I have no excuse I was so seduced by his charms
Call me gullible but I'd still believe his smiles
Oh I don't know what I'd do
If I saw him again
If I saw him again
If I saw him again
Wrap my arms around him
I still don't believe he meant to treat me badly
He was so confused, he was just trying to act right
With his eyes, he still declare 'I love you madly',
But with words, he lost his chance to keep this girl in sight
I have no excuse I was so seduced by his charms
Call me gullible but I'd still believe his smiles
Oh I don't know what I'd do
If I saw him again
If I saw him again
If I saw him again
Wrap my arms around him
I once said that if saw him I'd send him away
But now I know that, if I saw him, I'd beg him to stay
Oh he was cruel and I'm no fool but I still wish he'd be
Here with me
Close to me
Oh I don't know what I'd do
If I saw him again
If I saw him again
If I saw him again
Wrap my arms around him
Oh I don't know what I'd do
If I saw him again
If I saw him again
If I saw him again
Wrap my arms around him
