"Heaven" is the debut single from Scottish artist Emeli Sandé.
The song was written after a very deep conversation about religion and how to be good -- what we all try to do in this day and age and how difficult it is.

The iTunes Festival is an annual, month-long music festival and concert series which takes place in September at The Roundhouse art centre in London.

Lyrics :

"Heaven"

Will you recognise me
In the flashing light?
I try to keep my heart beat
But I can't get it right

Will you recognise me
When I'm lying on my back?
Something's gone inside me
And I can't get it back

Oh heaven, oh heaven
I wait with good intentions
But the day it always lasts too long
Then I'm gone
Oh heaven, oh heaven
I wait with good intentions
But the day it always lasts too long

Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
[x2]

Will you recognise me
When I'm stealing from the poor?
You're not gonna like me
I'm nothing like before.

Will you recognise me
When I lose another friend?
Will you learn to leave me?
Oh, give me one more try again

Oh heaven, oh heaven
I wait with good intentions
But the day it always lasts too long
Then I'm gone
Oh heaven, oh heaven
I wait with good intentions
But the day it always lasts too long

Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
[x2]

Oh heaven, oh heaven
I wait with good intentions
[x3]

You say that you're away
I try but always break
'Cause the day always lasts too long

Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
Then I'm gone
