Lyrics Kevin Ayers

Kevin Ayers

Only Heaven Knows

What do you do when it's all behind you

Everyday something else reminds you

When the times were sweet, wings on your feet

And bells on your toes, only heaven knows

What do you do when you've lost the feeling

Nowhere to go, you've reached the ceiling

Back down on the floor, no window, no door

Yeah, everything's closed and only heaven knows

Love is a treat, a magical feat

Illusion or for real

You're never quite sure if it's true what you feel

Or something that you felt before

What do you do when you know you're losing?

Sit on your ass and let the blues in

Think of what you had and how it all went bad

You send her a rose and only heaven knows

Love is a treat, a magical feat

Illusion or for real

You're never quite sure if it's true what you feel

Or something that you've felt before

What do you do when it's all behind you

Everyday something else reminds you?

When the times were sweet, wings on your feet

And bells on your toes, only heaven knows

Only heaven knows

Only heaven knows
