Heaven Knows

You took my heart, baby,
 And you broke it in a thousand pieces
 I may not have been much to you,
 But every man still needs a reason
 See, I tried so hard to love you girl
 Paid attention to your every need
 And right now my soul is crying out
 'Cause you mean so much to me
 I'm crying "How you say goodbye so easily?
 Why you take your lovin' so far from me?"
 Now I'm calling out desperately,
 "Won't you cut me some slack?"
 Heaven knows I did everything you asked me to
 Gave you all my love, but nothing was enough for you
 I got down on my knees, prayed for you to come around,
 But my prayers went unanswered 'cause you always let me down
 Heaven knows I tried
 Heaven knows I tried
 Now what kind of man do you consider me
 When I work from 5 to 5,
 When I come home I put my time in, girl,
 Just to keep our love alive?
 Honey, I tried so hard to please you
 Because you know how much I need you
 Oh girl, my soul is crying out
 And I'm on my bended knee crying,
 "How you say goodbye so easily?
 Why you take your lovin' so far from me?"
 Now I'm calling out desperately,
 "Won't you cut me some slack?"
 Heaven knows I did everything you asked me to
 Gave you all my love, but nothing was enough for you
 I got down on my knees, prayed for you to come around,
 But my prayers went unanswered 'cause you always let me down
 Heaven knows I tried
 Heaven knows I tried
 Ever since that day you left me, girl,
 I haven't had a wink of sleep
 'Cause I've been crying all night long, girl
 Don't you know what you mean to me?
 How you say goodbye so easily?
 Why you take your lovin' so far from me?
 Now I'm calling out desperately,
 "Won't you cut me some slack?"
 Heaven knows I did everything you asked me to
 Gave you all my love, but nothing was enough for you
 I got down on my knees, prayed for you to come around
 But my prayers went unanswered, 'cause you always let me down
 Heaven knows I tried
 Heaven knows I tried
 It's raining tears tonight
 Heaven knows I tried
