Heaven Only Knows
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh, i know it's strange
But i think that it's about to change
So i'll take the chance
To get back into the straight again
Chorus:
Heaven only knows (i'm really on the level)
Heaven only knows (i'm trying to find a way)
Heaven only knows (i'm walking down the straight & lonely road today)
(again...)
(heaven only knows...)
Now the sun will shine
And i'm gonna work it out this time
And before the light
All i gotta take is one more night.
Repeat chorus
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows
Heaven only knows.
(heaven only knows)
As the hours go by
I can only wonder why
You can change your mind
But you never change the price.
Repeat chorus
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows.
Repeat chorus
