Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I knew you fine, sight dream of mine
But I know my eyes they've often lied
And I move like blood, like fire and flood
Despite you
[Verse 2]
Blind love couldn't win
As the facts all came in
But I know I'll again chase after wind
What have I got if not a thought?
[Verse 3]
I knew, oh I knew
I knew
[Verse 4]
It was a fool's errand
Waiting for a sign
I can't leave until the sight comes to mind
A fool's errand
[Verse 5]
Life will repeat
Vision I see
The mouth and the teeth
That's fine with me
What have I got if not a thought?
[Verse 6]
I knew, oh I knew
I knew
[Verse 7]
It was a fool's errand
Waiting for a sign
But I can't leave until the sign comes to mind
A fool's errand
[Verse 8]
But I can make it through
I was thin and I saw all life in you
A fool's errand
