GOD ONLY KNOWS

songer.co/song/viootoniewxyj6ra7fsadyjk

Verse 1
I saw your name carved in a dream I forgot to remember
You lit a match in the fog of a long-lost December
You walked the safe roads, quiet and confined,
While I built altars from the scraps left behind.

Refrain
God only knows...
What songs we lost...
Way back then...
God only knows...
The silence where...
They might have been...

Verse 2
He put a ring on the ghost of who I thought you were
I’m left dancing with shadows, listening for echoes that blur
Your laugh still haunts the empty rooms we never dared to build
I trace your name in sand, but the tide just swallows it still

Refrain
God only knows...
What songs we lost...
Way back then...
God only knows...
The silence where...
They might have been...

Interlude
Ooh...
Do... do... do...
Lost notes hanging in the dust—
Empty rooms, empty trust
Do... do... do...
What might have been...

Verse 3
Songs we lost way back then—hidden behind closed doors
Verses we never sung, voices swallowed by the floor
Your smile’s a cracked photograph, tucked in the back of my mind
A melody drowned out by a goodbye left behind

Refrain
God only knows...
What songs we lost...
Way back then...
God only knows...
The silence where...
They might have been...

(Echoes fade softly into silence)
