about

Sometimes I feel bad about singing this song. I look out into the audience and see nice people I know who have been unlucky in love and I think who am I to say that it will happen for them someday when I really don't know. Then I remember that love can be found everywhere not just in romantic relationships. And anyway just look at John he didn't find true love until he was 104 years old!

lyrics

I didn't know how far I could go

Until he took me to the edge

I didn't know I didn't know love

Until my heart to him

I pledged I didn't know there was a secret

Until he whispered in my ear

Now it's so clear I didn't know


You think you know and you're going to tell me

You and all your good advice

You think you'll show me exactly what life is

And how we all must pay a price

But I've been watching you and all your silly games

You know I once was the same I didn't know


There's no way until the day arrives

You will see what so many prophesize

It's not lost to you It just wears a good disguise

Right now you're jaded

But someday you'll realize

You just didn't know


You don't have to think of where to look

It knows how to find you

Everything you're searching for is just one step behind you

I know you have it figured out but if I could just remind you

Though the opposite is said

It's without love we are blind


There's no way until the day arrives

That you will see what so many prophesize

It's not lost to you

It just wears a good disguise

Right now you're jaded

But someday you'll realize

You just didn't know
