How would you know if what you're needing
Isn't something you're not seeing?
What if you lost the chance to be what you could be
How would you know that something better
Wasn't waiting for bad weather
To soak its seeds, to give you everything you need?
We have a habit of thinking we know
The way it goes, then it goes another way
I know the latter is not a laughing matter
But it seems we'd be crazy not to think
That maybe this could be
Exactly what should be
How would you know if someone wiser
Wasn't forging in these fires?
What if you'd washed away what could've set you free?
How would you know if you've mistaken
When your heart is bruised and aching
For a bad thing when all you needed was to bleed?
We have a habit of thinking we know
The way it goes, then it goes another way
I know the latter is not a laughing matter
But it seems we'd be crazy not to think
That maybe this could be
Exactly what should be
What if we choose that we'll let go of
All the things we've no control of?
What if we learn to love whatever comes to be?
We have a habit of thinking we know
The way it goes, then it goes another way
I know the latter is not a laughing matter
But it seems we'd be crazy not to think
That maybe this could be
Exactly what should be
