William Elliott Whitmore - Lord Only Knows lyrics

rate me

Well, them loved ones who were paddlin' for that far shore

They're lilies of the field who will bloom never more

Well, they have gone over to the next phase

And brought to an end their earthly days

And lord only knows how's it's gonna end

Who stays and who goes

Lord only knows

And every good chapter it comes to a close

Nothing lasts forever, lord only knows

Them flowers from your funeral are starting to wilt

From cigarette smoke and a room full of guilt

But it was better for them than sticking around

Cause they lost their will to live when ripped from the ground

And lord only knows how it's gonna end

What dies and what goes

Lord only knows

Well, you had a heart as big as the sky

And for a good long time it healed me inside

But it was better for you than sticking around

Cause you lost your will to live in this river front town

Enjoy it while you can cause lord only knows<br />

<br />
