Something Happened On The Way To Heaven

(album: ...But Seriously - 1989)

We had a life, we had a love
But you don't know what you've got 'til you lose it
Well that was then and this is now
And I want you back

How many times can I say I'm sorry?
(How many times?)
Yes, I'm sorry

How can something so good go so bad?
How can something so right go so wrong?
Well, I don't know, I don't have all the answers
But I want you back

How many times can I say I'm sorry?
(How many times?)
Well you know

You can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving 'less you come with me
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe in me

(Oh yeah)

I only wanted someone to love
But something happened on the way to heaven
It got a hold of me and wouldn't let go
And I want you back

How many times can I say I'm sorry?
(How many times?)
Oh yes I'm sorry (sorry)
Well you know

You can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving 'less you come with me
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe me

You can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving 'til it's all over
We had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, let me show you

They say you can't take it with you when you go
And I believe it
But taking what I've got or being here with you, you know I
I'd rather leave it

We had a life, we had a love
But you don't know what you've got 'til you lose it
Well that was then and this is now
And I want you back

How many times can I say I'm sorry?
(How many times?)
Ooh, yes, I'm sorry (yes I'm sorry)
Well you know

You can run and you can hide
But I'm not leaving 'less you come with me
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe me

You can run and you can hide
But I'm not leaving 'til it's all over
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe in me
