I Think I Knew

There's no talking to him
His eyes are as bold as steam and tepid water
I want just to sit with him
Aging at the notion of a lifetime on a limb
There's no working it out
My wanting is beyond all fields of formula
There's no boundary to devotion
No territory to handle and cut neatly in two, free
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
No sign on the door
No title to the deeds I'm digging for
Upon we wade into an ocean
Blot out all uncertainty and call it as I'd be
Here is our ribbons of ice
Softening the corners of my eyes
I was bold, I was the offer
Doubt crept in like sickly dots
And dragged me through the freeze
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
I think I knew, I think I knew
I think I knew, I think I knew
I think I knew, I think I knew
What did you want?
Everything
How would you have him?
On my knees
There is no one that can't be opened
This one to cut the heart in two, the other one to choose
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
I think I knew, I think I knew
I think I knew, I think I knew
I think I knew, I think I knew
I think I knew, I think I knew
I think I knew, I think I knew
I think I knew, I think I knew
I think I knew
