Only Heaven Knows

Ooh there are the nights, we really get it right
Only heaven knows, only heaven knows

Only heaven knows, only heaven knows
Heaven knows
Oh, heaven knows
Only heaven knows, only heaven knows

Then it all breaks down and we can't find that common ground
And the hand of fate, reaches out once more
In this game of hit and miss, how long can we go on like this?
Heaven knows, oh yeah

And then there are the days, we go our separate ways
But if we threw it all away, it's something we'd regret someday

Oh, heaven knows
Why do we feel this pain inside?
Why do we feel this pain inside?
That's not the way, the way it oughta be, baby, oh, oh

Only heaven knows, only heaven knows
Ooh, there are the nights, when things just work out right
Only heaven knows, only heaven knows

My intentions are good, my actions are hard to explain
Nothin' left of you and me

Only heaven knows, only heaven knows
I've gotta speak my mind and deal with the situation

But if we threw it all away, it's something we'd regret someday, oh
Why do we laugh, why do we cry? Why do we feel this pain inside?
You see, I wanna be good to you, baby
But if we threw it all away, it's something we'd regret someday
Why do we do these foolish things?
No one could be as close as you and me
As though there's nothin' left of you and me, baby, oh no
Why do we do these foolish things?
Why do we laugh, why do we cry? Why do we feel this pain inside?
Why do we laugh, why do we cry?
You see I wanna be good to you, baby
Open the lines, the lines of communication
Only heaven knows, only heaven knows

In this game of hit and miss, how long can we go on like this?
Makin' love, endlessly
I get misunderstood sometimes, there's nobody but me to blame
Only heaven knows
And pulls me though that gate, like one hundred times before
