We had it all
With mortal hope and apprehension
Nothing ventured nothing gained
What do we know
His little hands inside our hands
And a million questions
We did it though

And heaven helped us
For reasons I can't explain
Yeah heaven helped us
And I think that it will again
You get just one life make the best of it
Just one life and the rest of it
Is up to you
Up to you
Up to you

For every echo every whisper
Someone listened
I don't know what I don't know who
But they were there
Like a message once in a while
When you least expect it
Somebody will come
And your burdens will be shed
Oh and heaven helped us
For reasons I can't explain
Yeah heaven helped us
And I know that it will again
You get just one life make the best of it
Just one life and the rest of it
Is up to you
Up to you
Up to you

Oh you get just one life make the best of it
Just one life and the rest of it
Is up to you
Up to you
Up to you

And when I say thank you
Those words they feel so slender
Done a thing so small
That nobody would know
What has been done
What will be done
Gonna say them though

Oh and heaven helped us
For reasons I can't explain
Yeah heaven helped us
And I know that it will again
Yeah you get just one life make the best of it
Just one life and the rest of it
Is up to you
Up to you
Up to you
Yeah you get just one life make the best of it
Just one life and the rest of it
Is up to you
Up to you
Up to you
