lyrics

Verse 1:
This is how I see things,

I am still and clear,

You can read me like a lake's floor,

Top to bottom dear.

Verse 2:
You're more like blue fire,

shape-shifting silently,

I can watch you when I want to,

I can't hear if it's for me.

Verse 3
See you've got the advantage,

You can point to my downsides,

Can I trust your good is goodness,

Are you innocent or wise?

CHORUS

Do you know what I don't? Where this goes, where this goes?

Do you know what I don't, where this goes?

Do you know what I don't? Where this goes, where this goes?

Do you know what you've started, be it slow?

Verse 5

And you've always let me know,

that I can't be off my guard.

I've been standing to attention,

you've been waltzing, wandering hard.

Verse 6
Did you ever think to let me,
 go another way?

What will happen when I catch you up?

Will you say stay or stay away?

You'll enjoy it either way.

CHORUS

Do you know what I don't? Where this goes, where this goes?

Do you know what I don't, where this goes?

Do you know what I don't? Where this goes, where this goes?



Do you know that you have me even so?

Will I rescue your routine?
 Be returned to your door?

Will I be a disturbance, nothing more?
Do you know what I don't? Where this goes, where this goes?

Do you know that we've started, got off slow?

Verse 6

So whisper I've been seeing things,

that you know me by my frame and call,

that you've been pulling me to safety,

that I'm not set up for a fall

or worse imagining it all.
