Verse Somethings you understand Somethings you never do It's all out of our hands And that's the only truth I wonder where you are I wonder where we'd been If I could have changed your mind And you were still in love with me I could search forever For all the reasons why I couldn't make you need me No matter how I tried Chorus God only knows What hearts have to break What tears have to fall Why we make mistakes So I'll go on faith And just walk away And maybe someday I'll learn to let go 2nd time) God only knows One minute at a time A little every day I start to recognize The me that slipped away Cause I got so lost inside you I almost lost myself Maybe someone knew That I needed someone else Why we do the things we do The roads we have to take The changes we go through
