Only God Knows

Julian Austin/Stephen Robichaud

 

Lord knows I’ve been a stranger

More than I’ve been your friend

Lord knows the hell I put you through

Through the years time and time again

Yet you’ve always been that understanding woman

Always been there by my side

And how a man like me has kept a woman like you

Only GOD knows why

 

Cause I can’t count the times I left you alone

There must’ve been some lonely nights

And I know I had you thinking

When you knew that I was drinkin’ again

And all those hundred lies I must’ve told

The thousand times I’ve been so cold

And how a man like me has kept a woman like you

Only GOD knows

Only GOD knows

 

I don’t know why you stayed so long with me

When no other woman would

Girl I know you could’ve walked

A million times but instead

Strong and tall you stood

You’ve always been that understanding woman

Still there by my side

And how a man like me has kept a woman like you

Only GOD knows why

 

And though I’ve treated you wrong

You still loved me along

And now it’s my turn to try

To stand by your side

 

And all the times I’ve treated you so cold

And all the lies I know that I have told

How a man like me has kept a woman like you

Only GOD knows

How a man like me has kept a woman like you

GOD only knows
