"God Only Knows" lyrics

John Prine Lyrics

"God Only Knows"

God only knows the price that you pay
For the ones you hurt along the way
If I should betray myself today
God only knows the price I pay

God only knows
God only knows
God only knows the way that I feel
Is only a part of the way I feel
If I can't reveal the way that I feel
God only knows the way I feel
God only knows
God only knows

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take

God only knows
God only knows
God only knows
God only knows

God only knows when I'm not true
To the things that I say, and the things I do
And if I can't be true to the things that I do
God only knows the way I feel

God only knows
God only knows
God only knows
God only knows
