FOREIGNER - Only Heaven Knows lyrics

rate me

My intentions are good, my hearts in the right place now<br>You see I wanna be good to you baby<br>But sometimes I just don't know how<br>And the hand of fate, reaches out once more<br>And pulls me though that gate<br>Like one hundred times before<br><br>Ooh, there are the nights, when things just work out right<br>No one could be as close as you and me<br>Then it all breaks down, and we can't find that common ground<br>That's not the way, the way it oughta be baby<br><br>Why do we laugh, why do we cry<br>Why do we feel this pain inside<br>Only heaven knows, only heaven knows<br>In this game of hit and miss<br>How long can we go on like this<br>Only heaven knows, only heaven knows<br>But if we threw it all away<br>It's something we'd regret someday<br>Heaven knows<br>Why do we do these foolish things<br>Only heaven knows<br><br>My intentions are good, my actions are hard to explain<br>I get misunderstood sometimes<br>There's nobody but me to blame<br>I've gotta speak my mind, and deal with the situation<br>Open the lines<br>The lines of communication<br><br>Ooh there are the nights, we really get it right<br>Makin' love, endlessly<br>And then there are the days, we go our separate ways<br>As though there's nothin left of you and me<br><br>Why do we laugh, why do we cry<br>Why do we feel this pain inside<br>Only heaven knows, only heaven knows<br>In this game of hit and miss<br>How long can we go on like this<br>Only heaven knows, only heaven knows<br>But if we threw it all away<br>It's something we'd regret someday<br>Heaven knows<br>Why do we laugh, why do we cry<br>Why do we feel this pain inside<br>Only heaven knows, only heaven knows<br>In this game of hit and miss<br>How long can we go on like this<br>Only heaven knows, only heaven knows<br>But if we threw it all away<br>It's something we'd regret someday<br>Why do we do these foolish things<br>Only heaven knows, only heaven knows<br><br>I wanna be good to you baby<br>Heaven knows, etc.
