[Verse 1]
Whether for worse or better
Time's been working against us since forever
It could really work if we work together
But what happens when one wants too much
Do we let it go or
[Pre-Chorus]
Do we give it another try
Or finally find the good in a goodbye
Maybe right one, but wrong time, but it's cool
Either way it goes, we're never in control because
[Chorus]
We try to decide in our minds who's right
Heaven only knows
We like to tell ourselves little lies to get by
Heaven only knows
We don't even know if whether things'll ever get better
Or not, we tried so why not move on with your life
Don't make no sense wasting your time
Heaven only knows
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I know it hurts but it gets better
Try to ride out the storm and weather the weather
Why settle for less than you want?
You can't ignore you need more than smoke and mirrors
You'll get what you deserve (What you deserve)
When you know just how much you're worth
Nothing less than someone who will put you first
Either way it goes, you're never in control because
[Chorus]
We try to decide in our minds who's right
Heaven only knows
We like to tell ourselves little lies to get by
Heaven only knows
We don't even know if whether things'll ever get better
Or not, we tried so why not move on with your life
Don't make no sense wasting your time
Heaven only knows
[Bridge]
Heaven only know (Heaven only knows)
Heaven only knows
Thought you had somebody (But it didn't work)
When you play with love (Sometimes it hurts)
You're thinking life is over (But it could be worse)
When it's really up to the stars (And the universe)
In the meantime, don't be sittin' around feeling sorry for yourself
(Need to let it go)
'Cause right now might be the right time to love somebody else
(Heaven only knows)
It's not up to you, you don't get to choose
Love has its own rules, just let it come to you
[Chorus]
'Cause we try to decide in our minds who's right
Heaven only knows
We like to tell ourselves little lies to get by
Heaven only knows
We don't even know if whether things'll ever get better
Or not, we tried so why not move on with your life
Don't make no sense wasting your time
Heaven only knows
