My intentions are good, my hearts in the right place now
|
You see I wanna be good to you baby
|
But sometimes I just don't know how
|
And the hand of fate, reaches out once more
|
And pulls me though that gate
|
Like one hundred times before
|
|
Ooh, there are the nights, when things just work out right
|
No one could be as close as you and me
|
Then it all breaks down, and we can't find that common ground
|
That's not the way, the way it oughta be baby
|
|
Why do we laugh, why do we cry
|
Why do we feel this pain inside
|
Only heaven knows, only heaven knows
|
In this game of hit and miss
|
How long can we go on like this
|
Only heaven knows, only heaven knows
|
But if we threw it all away
|
It's something we'd regret someday
|
Heaven knows
|
Why do we do these foolish things
|
Only heaven knows
|
|
My intentions are good, my actions are hard to explain
|
I get misunderstood sometimes
|
There's nobody but me to blame
|
I've gotta speak my mind, and deal with the situation
|
Open the lines
|
The lines of communication
|
|
Ooh there are the nights, we really get it right
|
Makin' love, endlessly
|
And then there are the days, we go our separate ways
|
As though there's nothin left of you and me
|
|
Why do we laugh, why do we cry
|
Why do we feel this pain inside
|
Only heaven knows, only heaven knows
|
In this game of hit and miss
|
How long can we go on like this
|
Only heaven knows, only heaven knows
|
But if we threw it all away
|
It's something we'd regret someday
|
Heaven knows
|
Why do we laugh, why do we cry
|
Why do we feel this pain inside
|
Only heaven knows, only heaven knows
|
In this game of hit and miss
|
How long can we go on like this
|
Only heaven knows, only heaven knows
|
But if we threw it all away
|
It's something we'd regret someday
|
Why do we do these foolish things
|
Only heaven knows, only heaven knows
|
|
I wanna be good to you baby
|
Heaven knows, [etc.]
