歌曲 | God Only Knows |
歌手 | Joe Henry |
专辑 | Civilians |
Darkness settles on the ground | |
And leaves the day stumbling blind, | |
Coming to a quiet close | |
And maybe just in time: | |
We'd almost lost the heart to know | |
How to keep our best in mind, | |
We'd almost lost the heart to know | |
How to keep our best in mind. | |
Time has turned an angry face | |
And throws a dark eye back to see | |
That what will pass for mercy now | |
We practice unforgiving. | |
As if might and will mode right | |
Or either one could make us free, | |
As if might and will made right | |
Or either one could make us free. | |
Lovers laugh and cross this way | |
Weaving out into the street, | |
It seems we never were so young | |
Or it was never quite so sweet. | |
But the world is always beautiful | |
When it's seen in full retreat, | |
The worst of life looks beautiful | |
As it slips away in full retreat. | |
God only knows that we can do | |
No more or lass than He’ll allow, | |
God only knows that we mean well | |
God knows that we just don't know how. | |
But I'll try to be your light in love | |
And pray that is enough for now, | |
I'll try to be your light in love | |
And pray that is enough for now. |
Darkness settles on the ground | |
And leaves the day stumbling blind, | |
Coming to a quiet close | |
And maybe just in time: | |
We' d almost lost the heart to know | |
How to keep our best in mind, | |
We' d almost lost the heart to know | |
How to keep our best in mind. | |
Time has turned an angry face | |
And throws a dark eye back to see | |
That what will pass for mercy now | |
We practice unforgiving. | |
As if might and will mode right | |
Or either one could make us free, | |
As if might and will made right | |
Or either one could make us free. | |
Lovers laugh and cross this way | |
Weaving out into the street, | |
It seems we never were so young | |
Or it was never quite so sweet. | |
But the world is always beautiful | |
When it' s seen in full retreat, | |
The worst of life looks beautiful | |
As it slips away in full retreat. | |
God only knows that we can do | |
No more or lass than He' ll allow, | |
God only knows that we mean well | |
God knows that we just don' t know how. | |
But I' ll try to be your light in love | |
And pray that is enough for now, | |
I' ll try to be your light in love | |
And pray that is enough for now. |
