“God Only Knows” by John Legend Lyrics

I may not always love you
But as long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I’ll make you so sure about it

God only knows what I’d be without you

If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on, believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what I’d be without you
God only knows what I’d be without you

If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on, believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what I’d be without you
Oh, oh, God only knows what I’d be without you
Ooh, God only knows
God only knows what I’d be without you
Oh, God only knows what I’d be without you
God only knows
(God only knows)

God only knows what I’d be without you
God only knows what I’d be without you
