could start fires with her smile
to light the darkest night
Something so fragile like a child
but always ready for a fight
I spoke to every wounded heart
An ache in her voice from a pain so deep
it's like she knew right from the start
And if you're up there somewhere
See it from a cloud on high
In a vintage cocktail dress
Be high there up to the sky
I hope you find the happiness
That you could never find down here
But heaven knows you tried,
heaven knows that you deserve it
Heaven knows that you deserve it
In your bloody ballet slippers,
some say you were led astray
His name tattooed on your body
like you voiced on the airwaves
When he broke your heart,
you picked up your guitar
An d showed the world your pain,
But if you're up there somewhere
singing from a cloud on high
In a vintage cocktail dress
with your high pair up to the sky
I hope you find the happiness
that you could never find down here
But heaven knows you tried
Heaven knows that you deserve it
Heaven knows that you deserve it
Now your name's in all the papers
And you're looking kind of thin
With all the nations speculating
There's a twinkle in your eye
that says that you'll come back around
Cos they can't keep you down
Cos you're the queen of Camden Town
If you're up there somewhere
singing from a cloud on high
In a vintage cocktail dress,
we have hair up to the sky
I hope you find the happiness
that you could never find down here
But heaven knows you tried
Heaven knows that you deserve it
Heaven knows that you deserve it
It was the middle of July,
Echoes on the summer breeze,
An d as the morning's gathered,
The day the music died you
