every night it's the same
i feel your heart turn cold as rain
i know that you'll be gone again
i hear the front door close
you say you gotta go downtown
i guess there's someone else you found
so why are you still going round
heaven only knows
heaven only knows
just why loving you should
make me cry make me feel like i could die
well 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
well heaven only knows
i've heard it said that talk is cheap
but still your words they cut so deep
leave me crying in my sleep
man the thing just grows
i don't know who's right or wrong
but all we had is dead and gone
so why'd 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
well 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
when heaven only knows
i'm gonna turn and walk away
there's nothing left for me to say
it wouldn't change things anyway
oh i suppose the love i gave was always true
well i don't know what else to do
and how i'll never get over you
and heaven only knows
heaven only knows
just why loving you should
make me cry make me feel like i could die
well 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
well heaven only knows
