Who Knows
Whooooa -- who knows?
When I was a baby child, my daddy said to meMany mountains we must climb before we’ll be freeBut he never told me about the bruises on my kneesHow they would be the map that leads to where we need to beAnd oh, that storm came down, forty days, forty nights
ChorusWho knows what the thunder and lightning will bringMaybe the storm will cover my dreamsMaybe the sun will shine no moreWho knows which way the wind is blowingAnd we’ll look back on these thingsAnd we won’t cry no more
Whooooa -- who knows?
Wandering blindly, searching for the truthAnd anchored to a solid rock that we could hold on toBut there’s no tomorrow, not for everyoneWho will hear your last harsh wordsWhen your time on earth is doneThat sun goes down, forty days, forty nights
Chorus
Hold your lamp downDon’t let the wind blow it outHold that light, childAnd one day it’s gonna shineSing until the darkness it is liftedSing until the darkness it is lifted
