Sitting right outside your house
Don´t know when the fire went out
Drinking in my Sunday clothes
Don´t ask me what went wrong, only God knows
Only God knows

Now I´ve tried my best to understand
How we wreck every chance we´ve had
These things your face just never shows
Won´t ask you what went wrong, only God knows
Only God knows

And I believe you´ve found a way
To never give up anything
Just to hold onto yourself
If you´d surrendered from the start
Maybe things would fall apart
But you can´t know unless you give in, unless you give in

So now I´m standing all alone
Not sure I can let you roam
Guess I walked this path you chose
Still wonder what went wrong, only God knows
Only God knows
Only God knows
Only God knows
