Luke Franks - The Only Thing I Know
Before I get too old to die
There’s a hundred things I’d like to try
And a thousand
Places that I’d love to go
A million things I’d like to say
And a billion things I’d love to change
But honey you’re the only thing I know
Well I will fly in to the sun
It ain’t suicide no it’s just for fun
And I’ll bring along a book
That I’ve never read
It said in last weeks Rolling Stone
If you’ve ever felt alone
You’re not alone
So lift your head
I’ll shake this tree ’til rabbits fall
Not apples cake or even a ball
Or diamonds that turn blood red into blue
And I’ll be shaking for a might long time
Ain’t even sure if rabbits can climb
But hey I ain’t got nothing better to do
Each time I look into this mirror
My body seems to disappear
It’s like it has an eye that sees right through
Each and every mask that I put on
This one I’ve had since I was born oh wait
That’s just a painting of this room
The ground is covered with many rocks
Upon which I’ve had to walk from the boat on up to the trailer
Since I first learned to crawl
I thought that I’d play basketball
I never thought I’d grow up to be a sailor
Ever since the very start
I never thought you’d break my heart
I wish that I was right and you weren’t so perfect
Once again I stand alone
I don’t much care for Rolling Stone
Love is just a crime and I’m a suspect
I’m a wreck
