Sharon Van Etten - I Know lyrics

rate me

Now I turn into a lover on the side

I cannot tell a poet apart from mine

And now you see me with a tear fall on my right

I know, I know

You see me turn around and try to hide my side

I know the ancient melodies will come at night

I hear your voice and I know what it causes

I know, I know

And then you push me out

And then you push me out

I know, I know

And then you disappear because you can fight fear

I know, I know

I sit inside a box and try to find my thoughts

With cuffs upon my ears so I can shut it out

I see you listen to my body and say

I know, I know

I hear your voice and I know what it costs

I know, I know

And here we are, apart

But here together, oh

Hearts that now beat for each other although far

I hear your voice and I know what it costs

I know, I know

Hold on, hold on

I want you

Hold on, hold on

All I ever wanted was you
