What do I Know

Ephraim Lewis


I Make It My Firm Policy 
To Make My Bed With Honesty 
So, I Don't Sleep With Shadows in the Room 
The Truth Is I've Been Holdin' Back 
The Way I Feel About the Fact 
That I'm Not As Close As I Want to Be With You

There's Still So Much More of You I Long to Know 
And I Won't Be Content Until I Do

Chorus 
'cause What do I Know 
If I Don't Really Know You 
Though I May Blow the Minds of Men 
How Can I Say That I Know 
Anything of Love 
Unless I Find It in Your Hands

I'm Not Playing Playground Games 
I'm Not Reading Dick and Jane 
And I Don't Need a Pass to Walk the Halls 
I've Graduated in My Faith 
And Still I've Barely Pushed the Gate 
That Opens to the One True Know-it-all

I Could Win a Nobel Prize Or Rule the World 
But, I Would Die a Genius With no Clue

Repeat Chorus

Bridge 
Life Is Such a Cruel Deception 
Without You to Lead My Quest 
I'd Fail the Test
