Heaven Only Knows

Heaven only knows where I've been Only they know what's tearing me down But Heaven's watching me, watching me God on his throne with his eternal crown He only knows what can break me and He's there with His hand when I do Each crack in my bones repaired slowly Without a scar, i'm now brand-new Heaven only knows what I've seen Heaven throws trials at me like rain Knowing that I've been through heck But hoping I can do it all again God only knows when the trials end He knows when my time is through And though i can't wait until that day There's more learning I have to do Heaven only knows what will make me Learn to enjoy all of the pain So I smile at the heavens in the rainstorm Fake a smile, and dance in the rain

Each crack in my bones repaired slowly Without a scar, i'm now brand-new , Wow this is the part I love most. You have given us what happens within without the sight of men . Only Heaven knows what we go through each morning before we retire to our beds. Juli , you have done so well. Keep it up.
