Amanda, light of my life Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife I've held it all inward, God knows, I've tried But it's an awful awakening in a country boy's life To look in the mirror in total surprise At the hair on my shoulders and the age in my

Maybe it's time to let the old ways die Nobody knows what awaits for the dead Nobody speaks to God these days It takes a lot to change a man Hell, it takes a lot to try Some folks just believe in the things they've heard And the things they read I'm glad

Only God knows Only God knows the trouble on my mind Only God knows how hard I've been trying So, you don't know how to explain heaven? Well, god knows There's more to life than living a wise man told me this Or maybe it was me who wrote it, I can't

I'm goin' insane, nobody knows All by myself, let the rain hit me Mask up my pain, hold back my tears Yeah, I take another shot Tryna just forget all the negative Devil laughin', meanwhile God explaining the benefits Listen, financial freedom Come and go

God knows I'm trying I cannot tell who is my friend I need distance between me and them Gonna have to teach me how to love you again God knows I'm trying for you I seen man turn fool for the money one too many times I seen some girls turn their back on

God knows at least we try Oh, God knows We will get up and grow We can make it just in time We'll march on 'Cause every time when we fall Oh, oh, God I know I won't be on my own Even birds don't fly alone

'Cause it's a long way home I'm headed for somewhere else Courage to carry on Mama always said I'll find my way back So tell me why am I still lost in limbo With nowhere to go God knows I'm trying, I'm fighting to get out of here Oh but sometimes it's

You gotta love it You better own it And god knows it You gutta shu uh shove it I'm gonna make things happen Goin' round n' round n' round... Any way you can feel it You shouldn't try to conceal it baby You got to make up your mind Any way I can steal it

Only makes me love you more 'Cause trying not to love you How could anyone ask for more? But if there's a pill to help me forget, God knows I haven't found it yet But I'm dying to, God I'm trying to Trying not to need you, is tearing me apart Can't see
