Joan Baez Only Heaven Knows Lyrics

Only Heaven Knows Lyrics

(Words and Music by Joan Baez) 



Seems we've been to heaven darling 

Ah the sad wind blows 

But I have lost my way my darling 

Tell me how it goes 

While the mist is rising darling 

Ah the sad wind blows 

Tell me how we met my darling 

Tell me all you know 



Well I am somewhat older darling 

Ah the sad wind blows 

And you are so much younger darling 

That's the way it goes 

And we looked so good together 

Ah the sad wind blows 

Out of all the summer flowers 

I had picked the rose 



Take me in your arms my darling 

While the sad wind blows 

Tell me that this pain will leave me 

Tell me how it goes 

Ah if this pain should ever leave me 

Only heaven knows
