Bonnie Raitt - God Only Knows lyrics

Darkness settles on the ground Leaves the day stumbling blind Coming to a quiet close And maybe just in time We've almost lost the heart to know How to keep our best in mind We've almost lost the heart to know How to keep our best in mind Time has turned an angry face Throws a dark eye back to sea But what will pa** for mercy now We'll practice unforgivingly As if might and will make right Or either one could make us free As if might and will make right Or either one could make us free Lovers laugh and cross this way They're weaving out into the street It seems we never were so young Or it was never quite so sweet But the world is always beautiful When it's seen in full retreat The worst of life looks beautiful As it slips away in full retreat God only knows that we can we do No more or less than he'll allow God only knows that we mean well God knows that we just don't know how But I try to be your light in love Pray that is enough for now Well I tried to be your light in love And I'll pray that is enough for now
