Lyrics
What You Don't Know
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Those are the things that nobody tells you those are the things that nobody knows
There is a key but you'll never find it pp to the house where nobody goes
Standing in line down at the station hundreds of men without a home
There are some things that nobody tells you deep in their hearts where nobody goes
Ooh ooh what you don't know
Ooh aoh you'd be surprised by what you don't know
Deep in the night a thousand questions you gotta see right through the dark
You got to hear and not even listen nobody tells you who you are
Ooh ooh what you don't know...
It scares a man when he discovers half of the truth is a part of a lie
A woman knows knows what she loves but those are the things that nobody tries
Ooh ooh what you don't know...
Ooh ooh what you don't know...
