Heaven knows I've tried, but nothing will give way at all I always see your face at the start of every day You always set the rhythm that makes my body ache Like mortar from a wall it's just your back you break Heaven knows I've tried to treat you better Heaven knows I've tried to give a little bit more How much will it take to stay together Heaven knows we've tried but we drifted apart Right from the start You always broke the border, it was always there to break I gave you all my loving, as much as you could take But still there's something missing, it's gone missing deep inside My words don't compensate at all, for the all the nights we died Heaven knows I've tried to treat you better Heaven knows I've tried to give a little bit more How much will it take to stay together Heaven knows we've tried but we drifted apart Right from the start A love you can't have, a love you can't face A love you broke once, a love you broke twice What seemed like love, felt like pain Everywhere you moved, it's gonna to be the same Blame it on people, blame it on the cards Whichever you do, It's going to the stars Heaven knows I've tried to treat you better Heaven knows I've tried to give a little bit more How much will it take to stay together Heaven knows we've tried but we drifted apart Right from the start
