I stopped askin’ why
Girl, the well’s gone dry
Time to say the words I’m sayin’
And hurtin’ you don’t come easy
God only knows,
Hurtin’ you don’t come easy
But I need to go

Thought we had it once
But what was once, was once
Time can change
Both dreams and dreamers
And hurtin’ you don’t come easy
God only knows
Hurtin’ you don’t come easy
But I need to go

I need to find what I ain’t found
I’ll may be lookin’ for it
Til the last day I’m alive
Don’t ask me what I’ll do
Don’t ask me where I’m bound
I just know I’m not alive
Unless I can get up and try
And hurtin’ you don’t come easy
God only knows
Hurtin’ you don’t come easy
But I need to go.
Hurtin’ you don’t come easy
God only knows…..
