I took a ride that took me out of nowhere
Life is an open door
I took a chance on you when it was unclear
What we were hoping for
This world can be, oh so cruel
But I've paid my dues

God only knows
What you do to me
Where we will be tomorrow
If you should stay
Please promise me nothing
'Cause God only knows

I am just a traveller on a journey
No destination sign
Even when you're on the road to nowhere
Take one step at a time
'Cause life can be, oh so cruel
That's yesterday's news
I can say it

God only knows
What you do to me
Where we will be tomorrow
If you should stay
Please promise me nothing, yeah

God only cares
When you're through to the bone
Can you feel the sorrow?
If you should go
Please promise me nothing

'Cause I'm alive and I'm here
And I don't wanna fear
There are mountains to climb
And this is my time

I can say it
God only knows
What you do to me
Where we will be tomorrow
If you should go
Please ask me for nothing, yeah
God only deals
To the ones that He knows
Have the strength to handle
'Cause God always throws
A line to the wanderer
Who God only knows
Yes, God only knows, woah
God only knows
