A brother's plea

[akhtar]

V1

Don't talk to me about your sinning

Don't ask me not to bow

I've told you before, God is

Don't want to be, a cup with no base

What would be the point in that

V2

I can put together, a classic melody

I can write, a great lyric

It woudn't say much, make you move

World, offer me, water to quench this thirst

This desert soul needs an oasis



CHORUS

God only knows

This is not meant to be a number one

It's just letters and spaces

From me to the disbeliever, a brother's plea

You're laughing now, you won't be tomorrow

God only knows, God only knows

V3

Temporal city, I insist you give eternity

Temporal city, you're my ancestral insanity

Your all smiles, face to face

Promising gifts, material wealth, sexual pleasures

Isolate, go on, you can never instigate



CHORUS

God only knows

This is not meant to be a number one

It's just letters and spaces

From me to the disbeliever, a brother's plea

You're laughing now but you won't be tomorrow

God only knows, God only knows

BRIDGE

Wasting time, on the outskirts of society

Waiting, in the house of god

Waiting, for the call

CHORUS

God only knows

This is not meant to be a number one

It's just letters and spaces

From me to the disbeliever, a brother's plea

You're laughing now but you won't be tomorrow

God only knows, God only knows
