Maybe My Love Will Come Back Someday Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She’s always on my mind
From the time I wake up
‘Til I close my eyes
She’s everywhere I go
She’s all I know
[Verse 2]
Though she’s so far away
It just keeps getting stronger
Everyday, and even now she’s gone
I’m still holding on
[Pre-Chorus]
So tell me where do I start
‘Cause it’s breaking my heart
Don’t wanna let her go
[Chorus]
Maybe my love will come back someday
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find their way
Only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
‘Cause heaven knows
[Verse 3]
My friends keep telling me
That if you really love her
You’ve gotta set her free
And if she returns in kind
I’ll know she’s mine
[Pre-Chorus]
But tell me where do I start
‘Cause it’s breaking my heart
Don’t wanna let her go
[Chorus]
Maybe my love will come back someday
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find their way
But only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
‘Cause heaven knows
[Bridge]
Why I live in despair?
‘Cause while awake or dreaming
I know she’s never there
And all the time I act so brave
I’m shaking inside
Why does it hurt me so?
[Chorus]
Maybe my love will come back someday
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find their way
But only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
‘Cause heaven knows
[Outro]
Heaven knows
Heaven knows

About the Song
“Heaven Knows” by Rick Price is a heartfelt pop ballad that became widely loved for its emotional honesty and classic ‘90s sound. The song centers around love, regret, and the painful realization that even deep feelings don’t always guarantee a perfect ending. Rick Price sings with a warm and gentle voice, which gives the song a sincere and personal touch, almost as if he’s telling the story directly to someone he once loved.
The lyrics explore the struggle of trying to hold on to a relationship while also admitting that things are falling apart. There’s a lot of vulnerability in lines that question what went wrong and whether love alone is enough to fix it. The chorus, with the repeated phrase “Heaven knows,” adds a bittersweet sense of acceptance — sometimes the only explanation for heartbreak is that life doesn’t go the way we hope.
Musically, the song blends soft piano, light guitar, and smooth pop production that was signature to the era. It has a warm and nostalgic feel, and the melody makes the emotional weight of the lyrics hit even harder. It’s the kind of song that can make listeners reflect on their own memories of love and loss, whether they’ve experienced heartbreak or simply understand the feeling from afar.
“Heaven Knows” remains one of Rick Price’s most recognizable songs because of how relatable it is. It captures a universal experience: loving someone deeply and still having to let them go. It’s tender, honest, and comforting in a quiet way — a reminder that heartbreak is something everyone goes through, even if they don’t always have the words for it.
