This Much I Know

this much i know

the night has to come
this much i know
as the light fades out
the wind begins to blow
and i am alone
& will forever be
just me
just me
just me

silence full of everything
silence full of truth
life is happening
old age & youth
if i can love you my way
then that's all I can do
& i do
i do
i do

the past is behind me
the future don't exist
but night is inside of me
& i must live with it

there's a longing inside me
big as the ocean
bout to carry me away
& wash me over clean

i see it in my dreams
& i know that it's coming
but when
oh when
oh when

cause the past is behind me
the future don't exist
but night is inside of me
and I must live with it

and don't you think I'd know by now
everything I'm supposed to do
when all the wisdom is up and out
open up & let it through

cause the past is behind me
the future don't exist
but night is inside of me
and i must live with it

the light has to come
this much i know
as the city wakes up
the sky begins to glow
and still
i am alone
but i'm
never lonely
cause it's me
just me
just me

cause the past is behind me
the future don't exist
but light is inside of me
and i must live with it
and i must live it
oh & i must live with it
