I Know It Well

Ron Sexsmith · Retriever [2004]

I know the feelin'

That's written on your face

Where you don't seem quite yourself

You're all out of place



I know it well



Hope springs eternal

Twenty-four hours a day

Yet still we convince ourselves

It's out of our way



I know it well, I know it well



When your heart's retreating

From this lonely world

That's the time that you must stay

For it needs you, it needs you



I hope tomorrow

Is clearer than today

Though in your house

Sorrow dwells, it never stays



I know it well, I know it well
