Watered with tears
Waiting for signs of growth
Took months of days
And then took years.
We took our steps
We took our falls
Somewhere along the way
We just got lost
And we lost it all.
Nothing ventured nothing gained
The risk of living is the pain
And what will be will be anyway
Oh, it's better not to know
The way it's gonna go
What will die and what will grow
It's better not to know
Those tiny stems became these trees
With dirt and storms
And sun and air to breathe
Like you and me
And some fell down
And some grew tall
And those surviving twenty winter thaws
Have the sweetest fruit of all
But innocence and planting day
Are both long gone
So much has changed
And if we got to do it all again...
Oh it's better not to know...
We sowed our seeds Watered with tears Waiting for signs of growth Took months of days And then took years. We took our steps We took our falls Somewhere along the way We just got lost And we lost it all. Nothing ventured nothing gained The risk of living is the pain And what will be will be anyway Oh, it's better not to know The way it's gonna go What will die and what will grow It's better not to know Those tiny stems became these trees With dirt and storms And sun and air to breathe Like you and me And some fell down And some grew tall And those surviving twenty winter thaws Have the sweetest fruit of all But innocence and planting day Are both long gone So much has changed And if we got to do it all again... Oh it's better not to know... Explain Request ×
