i know

Sharon Van Etten

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
