Heaven Knows by Rick Price
Verse 1
She’s always on my mind
From the time I wake up
‘Til I close my eyes
She’s everywhere I go
She’s all I know
Verse 2
Though she’s so far away
It just keeps getting stronger
Everyday, and even now she’s gone
I’m still holding on
Pre-Chorus
So tell me where do I start
‘Cause it’s breaking my heart
Don’t wanna let her go
Chorus
Maybe my love will come back someday
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find their way
Only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
‘Cause heaven knows
Verse 3
My friends keep telling me
That if you really love her
You’ve gotta set her free
And if she returns in kind
I’ll know she’s mine
Pre-Chorus
But tell me where do I start
‘Cause it’s breaking my heart
Don’t wanna let her go
Chorus
Maybe my love will come back someday
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find their way
But only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
‘Cause heaven knows
Bridge
Why I live in despair?
‘Cause while awake or dreaming
I know she’s never there
And all the time I act so brave
I’m shaking inside
Why does it hurt me so?
Chorus
Maybe my love will come back someday
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find their way
But only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
‘Cause heaven knows
Outro
