lyrics

“Nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen,”
When I first heard it, I was young,
And I really felt that melody,
And the way that it was sung,

I’m older now, I see the point,
We only have our own eyes,
And people can only ever see us in pieces,
Even when they sympathise,

I just want a witness to testify my story
The damage that’s been done and all the guts and glory
I just want a hand to lead me where I’m supposed to go,
Cause I don’t know, I don’t know

I’ve been up and down that same old street,
Maybe you’ve walked it too,
And all of the windows and faces and signs
Mean different things to you

We might use the same sounds and words
Wear the same brand of shoes,
Still no matter how hard I try,
I’ll never know your blues,

You just want a witness to testify your story
The damage that’s been done and all the guts and glory,
You just want a hand to lead you where you’re supposed to go,
I don’t know, I don’t know.
