[Verse 1]
Wide as heaven and as thick as love
White as a feather in the roses
Wild as the heather to the newborn dove
Slight as eleven to the dozen

[Verse 2]
Time is a raven with a beak of blood
Crying at seven every morning
Bright as forever in the bleaching sun
Wider than heaven when it's yawning

[Chorus]
Why does heaven make me feel so sad?
Why does heaven never notice?
Why would heaven make me feel so sad?
Why would heaven never notice?

[Verse 3]
Time is raven with a beak of blood
Crying at seven every morning
I would rather it didn't be so tough
Than bright as heaven in the dawning

[Chorus]
Why does heaven make me feel so sad?
Why does heaven never notice?
Why would heaven make me feel so sad?
Why would heaven never notice?
