Heaven Knows Songtext
von Josh Radnor

It′s the end of the road again
We've been here before but it′s different this time
Just a question of when
We separate what's yours from what is mine

Heaven knows I tried to walk away
But here on earth I make the choice to stay
In the morning I resolve to leave
And now I'm back in love again
And falling on my knees to pray
That I′ll stay one more day
And then another day

One never knows for certain
What is virtue and what is sin
And I′m pulling back the curtain
And hoping that some daylight creeps in


Heaven knows I tried to walk away
But here on Earth I make the choice to stay
In the morning I resolve to leave
And now I'm back in love again and I can finally breathe
Breathe you in
And breathe you in again

I′m sifting through voices clouding my head
And slaying the monsters that lurk 'neath my bed
And my optimism is covered in rust
I′m searching for something or someone to trust
And I'm counting to 10 I′m taking a 5
In hopes that this demon won't eat me alive
Is this story not over, oh can it be
Is this called love or insanity
It's folly to stay, it′s foolish to leave
The only thing certain is I′ll have to grieve
And I'm trying to hear what my body knows
The whisper of truth that lives in my toes
And the daylight it shows me the length of my scars
But only in darkness do I see the stars
And it′s only in darkness
Only in the dark
