Only God Knows lyrics

[Chorus]

Only God knows

Only God knows

Only God knows how hard I’ve been trying

Only God knows

Only God knows

Only God knows the trouble on my mind

[Verse 1]

“There’s more to life than living”, a wise man told me this

Or maybe it was me who wrote it, I can’t remember which

In any case what I mean, life’s an unfinished poem

Don’t go mad trying to figure out the ending

The day that Norman died, I found out through an email

The irony of that, I will not discuss in detail

My future is on thin ice and my past is all online

But only God knows the trouble on my mind

[Chorus]

Only God knows

Only God knows

Only God knows how hard I’ve been trying

Only God knows

Only God knows

Only God knows the trouble on my mind

[Verse 2]

My walls are filled with artwork, my art is filled with paint

My head is filled with big old thoughts of all the things I ain’t

I bet you know what that’s like, though you never drop your guard

Only God knows the places that you’re scarred

I’m sitting on a park bench in the city I don’t know

Trying to convince myself that I’m not all alone

But my immediate surroundings suggest otherwise

Only God knows the trouble on my mind

[Chorus]

Only God knows

Only God knows

Only God knows how hard I’ve been trying

Only God knows

Only God knows

Only God knows the trouble on my mind (mind)

Only God knows the trouble on my mind (on my mind)

Only God knows the trouble on my mind
