I sit here with a thousand yard stare
Praying why o why (Oh why?)
Why can't I just call you
When everything I feel
(Oh) says it all for real (Yeah yeah yeah!!)
You patiently wait in vain
(Oh you wait in vain)
Waiting for a call
A call that never came (Oh yeah)
I'm fighting back my fears
I've been hurt before (before you)
Now I'm scared to call
Chorus
But Oh
Heaven Only Knows
Oh
Why I just can't call
Verse 2
You look like an Angel
Sent from up above...(To give me your love)
But I'm so scared of love (So scared of love)
Wish that I could take the chance
Take the chance on you
Chorus
But Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows why I'm scared to fall
You're sent from up above
I'm so scared to give you my love
Bridge
Oh my soul (My soul)
Cries out for your love
But in my dark despair
This darkness rules my fears
And I'm so scared to give a chance
