"Something Happened On The Way To Heaven" lyrics

"Something Happened On The Way To Heaven"

We had a life, we had a love
But you don't know what you've got 'til you lose it
Well that was then and this is now
And I want you back
How many times can I say I'm sorry? (How many times?)
Yes, I'm sorry

How can something so good go so bad? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
How can something so right go so wrong? (Ooh-ooh)
I don't know, I don't have all the answers (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I want you back
How many times can I say I'm sorry? (How many times?)

Well, you know, you can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving, 'less you come with me
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe in me, ah, yeah

I only wanted someone to love (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
But something happened on the way to heaven (Ooh-ooh)
It got a hold of me and wouldn't let go (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I want you back
How many times can I say I'm sorry? (How many times?)
Ooh, yes, I'm sorry, (Sorry)

Well, you know you can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving, 'less you come with me
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe me
You can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving 'til it's all over
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, let me show you

They say you can't take it with you when you go
And I believe it
But taking what I've got or being here with you
You know, I, I'd rather leave it

We had a life, we had a love
But you don't know what you've got 'til you lose it
Well that was then and this is now
And I want you back
How many times can I say I'm sorry? (How many times?)
Ooh, yes, I'm sorry (Yes, I'm sorry)

Well, you know, you can run, and you can hide (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
But I'm not leaving 'less you come with me (Ooh-ooh)
We've had our problems but I'm on your side (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
You're all I need, please believe me
You can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving 'til it's all over
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe in me
