Heaven
John Legend Lyrics
Heaven only knows
Last night was the worst night
Beginning of the end
Or maybe it began
Before it here we go again
Things got so dramatic
Things got out of hand
We said words we couldn't imagine
I don't understand
There you go with the same old thing
When things go wrong, you always seem to blame me
Now I would like to find what secrets hide in your mind
Where the end will go
Will I ever know?
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
So let's make this night the best night
It's time for second chance
Turn the beat up on repeat, and we can start to dance
Sometimes when we talking words
Drowned on by the sound
Let's get back to touch, and we'll get back on solid ground
Let's hold hands
Like a young romance
Let's first kiss like the moment we first did
Can we make love
Like back way in the day?
We can lose control
Baby, don't say no
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
So will you come back to me?
Heaven only knows
So will you come back to me?
Make this night the best night
It's time for second chance
Turn the beat up on repeat, and we can start to dance
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows

Neo-soul singer and pianist John Legend combined the raw fervor of contemporaries Cody ChesnuTT and the burning precision of D'Angelo. Born John Stephens, Legend was a child prodigy who grew up in Ohio, where he began singing gospel and playing piano at the tender age of five. Legend left Ohio at 16 to attend college in Philadelphia, and it was there that he first found a larger audience. Not yet out of his teens, Legend was tapped to play piano on Lauryn Hill's "Everything Is Everything" in 1998. After completing college, he moved to New York, where he began to build a loyal following playing in nightclubs and releasing CDs that he would sell at shows. He also became an in-demand session musician, playing and occasionally writing for a wide array of artists, including Alicia Keys, Twista, Janet Jackson, and Kanye West. It wasn't until West signed the young talent to his new label that he adopted the Legend name with 2004's Solo Sessions Vol. 1: Live at the Knitting Factory. Get Lifted, his first studio album, was released later in the year. On the strength of enduring single "Ordinary People," the album reached the Top Five of the Billboard 200. This led to three Grammy Awards: Best R&B Album, Best R&B Male Vocal Performance, and Best New Artist. Once Again, which peaked at number three on the Billboard 200 and number one on the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, followed in October 2006. Live from Philadelphia, sold exclusively at Target stores, was a successful stopgap release that predated October 2008's Evolver.

He is so unforgettable, about 8 years ago I listened to his song on the radio, here in Russia but didn't know who was singing. Since that time I kept the song in mind and JUST now learnt who it was.
