Emmylou Harris - Heaven Only Knows lyrics

(paul kennerley) 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
