Lyrics Only Heaven Can Wait - Roberta Flack
We
know
that
it's
all
over,
still
we
haven't
said
goodbye
Pretending
life
is
wonderful,
pretending
you
and
I
Why
do
we
stay
together?
We
can't
wait
forever
Never's
too
late,
only
heaven
can
wait
Waiting
for
love
won't
make
it
happen
Crying
for
love
don't
mean
you
care,
oh
no
Only
when
love
has
ended
can
a
heart
be
mended
Never's
too
late,
only
heaven
can
wait
for
love
Heaven
can
wait
for
love
In
horoscopes,
in
true
romance
and
Playboy
magazine
We
lie
in
bed
at
night
and
search
the
pages
for
our
dreams
Why
do
we
stay
together?
We
can't
wait
forever
Never's
too
late,
only
heaven
can
wait
And
waiting
for
love
won't
make
it
happen
Crying
for
love
don't
mean
you
care,
oh
no
Only
when
love
has
ended
can
a
heart
be
mended
Never's
too
late,
only
heaven
can
wait
Why
do
we
stay
together?
We
can't
wait
forever
Never's
too
late,
only
heaven
can
wait
Why
do
we
stay
together?
We
can't
wait
forever
Never's
too
late,
only
heaven
can
wait
So
we've
been
together
too
long,
you
and
I,
there
were
the
children
Shared
interests,
creative
interests,
business
interests
Our
in-laws
and
then
just
plain
old
bad
habit
Now
things
have
changed,
you've
changed
I've
changed,
and
it's
time
to
move
on
So,
my
sweet,
you
kept
doubting
that
I
would
ever
understand
What
you
meant
when
you
said
you
needed
your
space
Well,
I
do
understand,
I
have
some
more
reasons
Another
purpose
to
my
life
and
I'm
ready
to
take
my
own
space
We
both
deserve
it,
something
real
Why
do
we
stay
together?
We
can't
wait
forever
Never's
too
late,
never
Why
do
we
stay
together?
We
can't
wait
forever
Never's
too
late,
heaven
can
wait
Why
do
we
stay
together?
We
can't
wait
forever
Never's
too
late,
only
heaven
can
wait
Why
do
we
stay
together?
We
can't
wait
forever
Never's
too
late,
only
heaven
can
wait
Why
do
we
stay
together?
We
can't
wait
forever
