Roberta Flack and Peabo Bryson - Only Heaven Can Wait (For Love)/You Are My Heaven [Live]

We know that its all over, still we haven't said goodbye,
Pretending life is wonderful, pretending you and I.

Why do we stay together, we cant wait forever,
Heavens too late, only heaven can wait.

Waiting for love wont make it happen,
Crying for love don't mean you care ..oh no,
Only when love has ended, can a heart be mended.

Nevers too late, only heaven can wait.
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 cant wait forever,
Heavens too late, only heaven can wait.

And waiting for love wont make it happen,
Crying for love don't mean you care ..oh no,
Only when love has ended, can a heart be mended,
Evers too late, only heaven can wait.

Why do we stay together, we cant wait forever,
Heavens too late, only heaven can wait.
Why do we stay together, we cant wait forever,
Heavens too late, only heaven can wait.

Talking, 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, Ive changed and its time to move on.
So, my sweet, you kept doubting
that I would 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 cant wait forever,
Heavens too late, only heaven can wait.

Why do we stay together, we cant wait forever,
Heavens too late, only heaven can wait.

Why do we stay together, we cant wait forever,
Heavens too late, only heaven can wait.

An angel whispered to me when I woke this morning
That I would find heaven by my side
And there were you angel, heaven in the morning
Playing in my arms and in my life
And I reached this decision, I love you my religion
That is in my soul and in my heart
No one could ever change my mind, oh, no

'Cause I got you here right by my side
You are my love (You are my love)
You are my heaven
You are my love

Make me sing la di da
You are my love (You are my love)
You are my heaven
Darling, I, oh
I won't let them take you away
(Won't let them take you away)

If angels whispered to you early every morning
It's really something wonderful and rare
I get up in the morning feeling that forever
I have all your love and all your care

If someone tries to tells that I do not love you
Tell them they must be out of their mind
I ain't gonna let them change my mind, oh, no
'Cause I got you here right by my side

You are my love (You are my love)
You are my heaven
You are my love
Make me sing la di da
You are my love (You are my love)
You are my heaven

Darling, I, oh
I won't let them take
Darling, I, oh
I won't let them take
Darling, I, oh

I won't let them take you away
(Won't let them take you away)
You are my love (You are my love)

You are my heaven
You are my love
Make me sing la di da
You are my love (You are my love)
You are my heaven

Darling, I, oh
I won't let them take you away (Won't let them take)
You are my love (You are my love)
You are my heaven
You are my love
Make me sing la di da
You are my love (You are my love)
You are my heaven

Darling, I, oh
I won't let them take you away
I won't let them take you

You are my love (You are my love)
You are my heaven
You are my love (You are my love)
Make me sing la di da
You are my love (You are my love)
You are my heaven
Oh, oh, oh
