Wish I Knew

We carry on in the same old way
No lesson learned from yesterday
Talk of changes, lost in pages of paper work

How can we refuse to see
What could be our final destiny
Still we go on from day to day knowing what could be true
Wish I knew, oh
Wish I knew

We've cast the world, we've set the stage
For what could be the darkest age
Short exchanges from perfect strangers we'll never know
Wish we knew

It's time to face reality
Questioning the powers that be
Are we too confused to see
Wish I knew
Wish I knew
Wish I knew, oh
Wish I knew

Turn, turn to love
Love for another
Turn, turn to love
Love one another

Open your eyes and discover you're not the only one
In disguise do you wonder when the change is gonna come
Open your eyes

Wish I knew
It's time to face reality
Things aren't what they used to be
What I see in you you see in me

Wish I knew
Wish I knew
Wish I knew, oh
Wish I knew

Open your eyes and discover you're not the only one
In disguise do you wonder when the change is gonna come
Open your eyes
Open your mind
