Bicycle Named Heaven Lyrics

I had a bicycle named heaven and i painted it blue
When I lived next to you
You'd come around knocking every afternoon
Want to take it out spinning with you

If heaven had only loved me the way that I loved you
I'd have had freedom all around me like you do
I always want what I can't have
All I got is a photograph of you and heaven
You

I had problems with my chemistry
Problems with distraction
When I lived next to you
You would come and help me
Help me with my fractions
Show me things I thought I knew

If heaven had only loved me the way that I loved you
I'd have had freedom all around me like you do
I always want what I can't have
All I got, a couple laughs with you and heaven
You

I remember you every first day of spring
When the bicycle's in bloom
Everybody is out
I can see you riding
Back and forth between the sun and the moon

If heaven had only loved me the way that I loved you
I'd have had freedom all around me
I would have you
I always want what I can't have
All I got is this photograph of you and heaven
You
You and heaven
You

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
