She giggled as he kissed her neck,
Made her feel so week...
Tried to turn the key in the door,
He'd moved on to her cheek...
Giggles and laughter inside the room
Time enough for fun...
Kiss for a moment, get scared for a while
And once it's done, it's done...
And heaven knows he loves her...
And heaven knows it's right...
And heaven knows they'll be together
Forever and a night...
She cried when she got home that day
Her roommate hugged her tight
She screamed at herself, let it all be wrong
She couldn't let it be right
And she touched her stomach and couldn't believe it
It couldn't be there, but why?
She hadn't meant to love him, and now it was all a sigh...
And heaven knows he loves her...
And heaven knows it's right...
And heaven knows they'll be together
Forever and a night...
He didn't get all the commotion
Everyone talked him down
He began to get the notion
That they thought he was getting around
Such a talker, such a weak man...
Seemed more like a boy
He never treated her like that,
She was never his little toy...
And heaven knows he loves her...
And heaven knows it's right...
And heaven knows they'll be together
Forever and a night...
She told him last of all
And he felt so weak inside
He couldn't admit his tears
That something inside him had died
And she was sure he'd be gone forever
But when he said that he would stay
She wanted to hold him forever...
Forever and a day...
And when he got down on his knee
And when he gave her the ring...
A Cracker-Jack one for now
Until he could get the real thing...
She cried and she hugged him tighter
Than she'd ever hugged him before
And they vowed they'd be lovers forever
If by then they could love no more
And heaven knows he loves her...
And heaven knows it's right...
And heaven knows they'll be together
Forever and a night...
The baby came softly, and quickly
He fainted the moment she cried
He held his little girl later
And smiled and gently sighed
And he looked at the new-crowned mother
And he kissed her once or twice
And they felt at last it was perfect
The world just felt so nice...
And the day the baby walked
The tears that filled the air
Two lonely souls together
Answered though a prayer
And the day the car got lost
And the day he called the world...
Nobody knew where she could be
He'd lost his lovely girl...
And he held the baby and cried
And the world went along for the ride
Nobody cared, nobody dared
And he simply wouldn't say she had died...
But when the phone rang and he answered
And they said it in uneasy tones...
He kissed his daughter's forehead...
And knew that they were alone...
And heaven knows he loves her...
And heaven knows it's right...
And heaven knows they'll be together
Forever and a night...
And she looked on them from heaven
And she cried when he cried deep
And she touched their bedisdes gently
Kissed them both to sleep
And she went to her baby's wedding
And watched the two of them dance...
She kissed his forehead gently
Thanked God for giving him a chance...
And he felt something when he missed her
And he knew that she was there
And he talked to her every day...
Through soft and gentle prayer
And heaven knows they're together...
And together they'll always be...
The two lost souls, so far apart
Yet together as they could be...
And heaven knows he loves her...
And heaven knows it's right...
And heaven knows they'll be together
Forever and a night...
Heaven knows they'll be together
Forever and a night... |
