Writers: Leo Sayer & Alan Tarney

nowadays they want a soldier fighter 
not a preacher writer or a mystery man 
somebody told me that the future`s brighter 
make tomorrow lighter put it in your hands 

but I don`t wanna cry anymore 
try anymore -- die anymore 

heaven knows I`m impatient 
I can`t control these hands of fate 
heaven knows I`m still waiting 
are they too soon or am I too late 

oh is that so 
only heaven knows 
well I wanna know 
tell me is that so 
only heaven knows 
heaven only knows 

here come the romeos the brave I told you so`s 
the travelling g.i. joes with come on lines 
here come the great defenders 
wh think they can befriend us 
why do we all pretend to know these guys 

well I don`t wanna wait anymore 
be late anymore -- hate anymore 

heaven knows I`m impatient 
I can`t control these hands of fate 
heaven knows I`m still waiting 
are they too soon or am I too late 

oh is that so 
only heaven knows 
well I wanna know 
tell me is that so 
only heaven knows 
heaven only knows 

what a strange design 
it`s a planet out of time 
someone tell me why 
is the world like that 

oh heaven knows 
I said oh heaven knows 

heaven knows I`m impatient 
I can`t control these hands of fate 
heaven knows I`m still waiting 
are they too soon or am I too late 

you resign yourself to a simple fate 
to live your life by the sell by date 
haul yourself up the same old hill 
watch the world from your windowsill 
we always want what we can`t afford 
so we listen out for the missing chord 
the chord is there and it`s in your mind 
so why do you make it so hard to find
