Why Won’t Heaven Help Me?

Elvis Costello

[Verse 1]
I set off alarms and fire off flares
'Cause sometimes they answer prayers
I'm listening
I wait for some distant bell to ring

[Pre-Chorus]
Why won't heaven help me? (far, far away)
Why won't heaven help me? (it's so hard to say)
Why won't heaven help me?

[Chorus]
Hey, you out there
Even if you dare take care of your wishes
If you finally do come true
You may regret that too
Why won't heaven help me?
Why won't heaven help me?

[Verse 2]
Remember the thrill that followed praise
While dressed for a lover's gaze
The moment when
You saw through the lies of older men

[Pre-Chorus]
Why won't heaven help me? (far, far away)
Why won't heaven help me? (it's so hard to say)
Why won't heaven help me?

[Chorus]
Hey, you out there
Even if you dare take care of your wishes
If you finally do come true
You may regret that too
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven)
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven)
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven)

[Verse 3]
I sensed this was wrong
But take my word, I thought somehow I'd be spared
Alone again
Believe what you want to me 'til then

[Pre-Chorus]
Why won't heaven help me? (far, far away)
Why won't heaven help me? (it's so hard to say)
Why won't heaven help me?

[Chorus]
Hey, you out there
Even if you dare take care of your wishes
If you finally do come true
You may regret that too
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven?)
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven?)
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven?)

[Outro]
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven?)
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven?)
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven?)
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven?)
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven?)
Why won't heaven help me? (why won't heaven?)
