Lyrics

You Could Never Tell

We sat in the Half-Light

I didn't know what to say

Oh you could never tell

Why I do these things

Why did I do these things

I knew I wouldn't want to know

I have betrayed myself

For something poor and shallow

She was talking about

Something she heard

She was talking about

Something she heard

She was talking about

Something she heard

She was talking about

Something she heard

Finally I'm closing in

On what I have been chasing

But as the moment comes

It's just by expectation

Ice wings of paradise

The sky will try to follow

That first kiss you had

Will curse all your tomorrows

She was talking about

Something she heard

She was talking about

Something she heard

She was talking about

Something she heard

She was talking about

Something she heard

Is it any wonder

I easily find her

I stand by the fountain

When I call she answers

Though I say

No I don't know

You're right

She was talking about

Something she heard

She was talking about

Something she heard

She was talking about

Something she heard

She was talking about

Something she heard

Something she heard

Something she heard

Something she heard

Something she heard

Something she heard
