Blast From the Recent Past 2: Heaven Knows [Rick Price]

29 July 2008 3 Comments

I am not sure if Rick Price was a one-hit wonder. But I do not know any other song by Rick Price except for this one. And this one was a real hit. I was second year high school when it hit the airwaves and rocked the world of people my age. hehehe. Oh, I just heard it the other day on the way home from work.

Heaven Knows may sound corny now, but it didn’t when I was growing up. :-)

Heaven Knows
Rick Price

She’s always on my mind
From the time I wake up
Till I close my eyes
She’s everywhere I go
She’s all I know

And though she’s so far away
It just keeps getting stronger everyday
And even now she’s gone
I’m still holdin’ on

So tell me where do I start
‘Cause it’s breakin my heart
Don’t wanna let her go

Maybe my love will come back someday
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find a way
Only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
‘Cause heaven knows

My friends keep telling me
That if you really love her
You’ve gotta set her free
And if she returns in time
I’ll know she’s mine
So tell me where do I start
‘Cause it’s breaking my heart
Don’t wanna let her go

Maybe my love will come back someday
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find a way
Only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
‘Cause heaven knows

Why I live in despair
‘Cause wide awake or dreaming
I know she’s never there
And all the time I act so brave
I’m shakin’ inside
Why does it hurt me so

Maybe my love will come back someday
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find a way
Only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
‘Cause heaven knows
Heaven knows
Heaven knows
