We've been sitting in this room all night

We won't stop until the sky gets light

I could stare into your eyes through time

I won't stop until I make you mine

When you looked at me, I melted down

And the fall, I never hit the ground

You could hold me, I could take your hand

Show your smile, baby, be my man

And that look, the one before we kissed

The one before you missed out on a love like this

Were you scared? I thought we had it real

The kind of love that you could feel

Down onto your toes

But only God knows

Only God knows 

You threw the match into a soul on fire

You dealt the cards, you never cut the deck

I could have showed you, could have shook your plans

But you're the liar in a wistful land

And that look, the one before we kissed

The one before you missed out on a love like this

Were you scared? I thought we had it real

The kind of love that you could feel

Down onto your toes

But only God knows

Only God knows 

You had what you always wanted: a lover and a curse

You skipped the pages, now you're sorry, you don't know what's worse

I bled on a silky surface, you threw in the knife 

The deceptive smile of a liar

I can know what that's like

Only God Knows
