God knows, God knows the direction
We're heading in tonight
God knows, God knows that when we're gone
They'll paint our shadows white
And God knows, God knows most wars are lost
Before they even start
And God knows, God knows you'll count the cost
With blood or with your heart
With your heart

I know it all worked out wrong
I know the next line to your cradle song

God knows, God knows the sky lit up
As the theatre closed down
I think you know I still love you
You're still the brightest glow around

God knows, God knows the seasons change
And summer came and went
God knows, God knows we've all got one
A favourite descent
Oh baby, we'll soldier on
To the final righteous breath
God knows, God knows the heart has gone
We've just got roses left
Roses left
