When you're like a broken bird
Tell heaven
Battered wings against a darkened day
When your worries won't let you sleep
Tell heaven
When the tears won't ever go away

If you got no one to love
Tell heaven
There's no one on the telephone today
When every story falls apart
Tell heaven
Nothing good seems like it'll come your way
Tell heaven
Tell heaven

With heavy hearts and empty rooms
Tell heaven
You don't have to know what you will say
The empty sky may never take our burdens
But something good will someday come our way
So tell heaven
Tell heaven
