God Only Knows Lyrics by for KING & COUNTRY, Dolly Parton

burn the ships (Deluxe Edition: Remixes & Collaborations)

2019

[Verse 1: Joel Smallbone]
Wide awake while the world is sound asleepin'
Too afraid of what might show up while you're dreamin'
Nobody, nobody, nobody sees you
Nobody, nobody would believe you
Every day you try to pick up all the pieces
All the memories, they somehow never leave you
Nobody, nobody, nobody sees you
Nobody, nobody would believe you
[Chorus: Dolly Parton, Joel and Luke Smallbone, All]
God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
God only knows how it's killin' you
But there's a kind of love that God only knows
God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
But God only knows the real you
'Cause there's a kind of love that God only knows
[Post-Chorus: Dolly Parton & Joel Smallbone]
There's a kind of love that
There's a kind of love
[Verse 2: Joel Smallbone & Dolly Parton]
You keep a cover over every single secret
So afraid if someone saw them, they would leave
But somebody, somebody, somebody sees you
Somebody, somebody will never leave you
[Chorus: Dolly Parton, Joel and Luke Smallbone, All]
God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
God only knows how it's killin' you
But there's a kind of love that God only knows
God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
But God only knows the real you
'Cause there's a kind of love that God only knows
[Post-Chorus: Dolly Parton & Joel Smallbone]
There's a kind of love that
There's a kind of love
There's a kind of love that
There's a kind of love
[Bridge: Joel & Luke Smallbone, Dolly Parton, All]
For the lonely, for the ashamed
The misunderstood, and the ones to blame
What if we could start over?
We could start over, we could start over
Oh, for the lonely, for the ashamed
The misunderstood, and the ones to blame
What if we could start over?
We could start over, we could start over
'Cause there's a kind of love that God only knows
[Chorus: Joel and Luke Smallbone & Dolly Parton]
God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
But God only knows the real you
But there's a kind of love that God only knows
God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
But God only knows the real you
There's a kind of love that God only knows
[Post-Chorus: Dolly Parton & Joel Smallbone]
There's a kind of love that
There's a kind of love
There's a kind of love that
There's a kind of love
[Outro: Dolly Parton]
God only knows where to find you
God only knows how to break through
God only knows the real you
There's a kind of love that God only knows
