God Only Knows

God Only Knows

Spring has come

Another generation

Is leaving town

While another returns homeThey never meet half the way

One never listens to what the other says

The way it's always been

In the past and in eternityI used to be one of them

Young enough to know the way

But the black and white world fades

Ending up in a mess of grey

Because god only knows

God only knows

God only knows

What's right or wrongThese are the fields

I used to run through as a child

In a different light

And a less complicated frame of mindBut as I take my daughters hand

And let her lead me through them

I'm there once again

All dressed up like an indianNothing really changes

Especially not around here

Now I'm old enough to know better

Because god only knows

God only knows

God only knows

What's right or wrong

God only knows

God only knows

God only knows

If this is my homeOld guys, with their young Thai wifes

Driving by in their pick up trucks

I won't move, no I won't move

Living dead, old friends

I gave them all up long, long time agoAnd all in all it's a shitty old town

All in all it's a shitty old town

But it's my shitty old town

And God only knows

God only knows

God only knows

If this is my home
