Know It to See It

Take your bag, get in the car, get in the car

And drive it somewhere quiet

Where you can sit at the wheel for a real short minute

Smoking a cigarette

'Cause it's time for it to leave you and you know it will go

It's long gone, under brush and scrub

Over land, roadless, slipping through fences

I know it to see it, I see it all the time

You felt small and free like a kid

'Cause now it don't care what you did or what you might do

You felt light and somehow see-through

It's not love, it's not cause of love

It's not a blessing or a curse, I don't know what it is

But I know it to see it and I know it when I don't see it

And I don't see it in you
