If Heaven let you in on strength of your smile
Then you'd be the first by a country mile
You knew what you wanted
You knew how to get it
You knew you were close
But life wouldn't let it
I wrote all this down when I first heard the news
And it (wasn't love?) to give this boy the blues
Forgive me for giving up on you
I let you in when you'd stopped by my place
I knew we were friends by the look on your face
You never changed you were always the same
I am the one if there's someone to blame
If Heaven let you in on strength of your smile
Then you'd be the first beyond and above
You knew what you wanted
You knew how to get it
You knew you were close
But faith wouldn't let it
