Lyrics to Only God Knows Why
Verse 1 Refrain Verse 2 Verse 3
I've been sittin' here
Tryin' to find myself
I need to get behind myself
I need to rewind myself
Lookin' for the payback
Listen for the playback
And they say that every man bleeds just like me
And I feel like number one
Even when I'm last in line
I watch my youngest son
It helps to pass the time
I take too many pills
Tryin' to ease the pain
I made a bunch a dollar bills
But still I act the same
Everybody knows my name
They say it way out loud
People try to comfort me
But it's hard to hang out in a crowd
I guess that's the price you pay
To be some big star like I am
Outstretched hands and one night stands
But still I can't find love
No, I can't find love
Can't find love
When it all comes tumbling down
I will still be hangin' 'round
People don't know about the things I say and do
They don't understand, all the hard times I've been through
Its been so long
Since I've been home
Lord you know it, I've been gone for much too long
Maybe I forgot all the things I miss
In my heart I know there's gotta be more to life than this
More to life than this
Hey-Ye this
When it all comes tumbling down
I will still be hangin' 'round
I said it so many times
And I still stand firm
You get what you put in, givin' these people what they deserve
Givin' 'em what they deserve
Still I ain't seen lights
For the days and nights
My life's a stage for the flashy lights
People talk about me
But I don't cry
I just keep walking with my head held high
I can't lose it all
But only God knows
Only God knows, why
Only God knows why
Why, why, why
Only God knows why
Why, why, why
I've been sittin' here
Tryin' to find myself
I need to get behind myself
I need to rewind myself
Lookin' for the payback
Listen for the playback
And they say that every man bleeds just like me
And I feel like number one
Even when I'm last in line
I watch my youngest son
It helps to pass the time
I take too many pills
Tryin' to ease the pain
I made a bunch a dollar bills
But still I act the same
Everybody knows my name
They say it way out loud
People try to comfort me
But it's hard to hang out in a crowd
I guess that's the price you pay
To be some big star like I am
Outstretched hands and one night stands
But still I can't find love
No, I can't find love
Can't find love
When it all comes tumbling down
I will still be hangin' 'round
People don't know about the things I say and do
They don't understand, all the hard times I've been through
Its been so long
Since I've been home
Lord you know it, I've been gone for much too long
Maybe I forgot all the things I miss
In my heart I know there's gotta be more to life than this
More to life than this
Hey-Ye this
When it all comes tumbling down
I will still be hangin' 'round
I said it so many times
And I still stand firm
You get what you put in, givin' these people what they deserve
Givin' 'em what they deserve
Still I ain't seen lights
For the days and nights
My life's a stage for the flashy lights
People talk about me
But I don't cry
I just keep walking with my head held high
I can't lose it all
But only God knows
Only God knows, why
Only God knows why
Why, why, why
Only God knows why
Why, why, why
