Every night it's the same
|
I feel your heart turn cold as rain
|
And know that you'll be gone again
|
I hear the front door close
|
You say you got to go downtown
|
I guess there's someone else you've found
|
So why you're still coming round
|
Heaven only knows
|
|
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry
|
Make me feel like I could die
|
That's the way it goes
|
Heaven only ever sees
|
How love's made a fool of me
|
I guess that's how it's meant to be but
|
Heaven only knows
|
|
I've heard it said that talk is cheap
|
But still your words they cut so deep
|
Lay me crying in my sleep
|
And the pain just grows
|
I don't know who's right or wrong
|
But all we had is dead and gone
|
So why you keep me hanging on
|
Heaven only knows
|
|
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry
|
Make me feel like I could die
|
That's the way it goes
|
Heaven only ever sees
|
How love's made a fool of me
|
I guess that's how it's meant to be but
|
Heaven only knows
|
|
I'm going to turn and walk away
|
There's nothing left for me to say
|
It wouldn't change things anyway
|
Though, I suppose
|
The love I gave was always true
|
Well, I don't know what else to do
|
And how I'll ever get over you
|
Heaven only knows
|
|
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry
|
Make me feel like I could die
|
That's the way it goes
|
Heaven only ever sees
|
How love's made a fool of me
|
I guess that's how it's meant to be but
|
Heaven only knows
|
