I Don’t Know Song Lyrics

I Don’t Know by Edie Brickell

Who’s that sleeping in the shadow
I don’t know
Who’s that dreaming in the front
I don’t know
Who’s that waking up beside me
Singing like a radio
Who’s that rolling up behind me
I turn around and I don’t know

I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know
Anymore
I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know
Who you are
I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know
Anyone

I was building up a tower
Thinking my foundation was strong
Walking talking detonator
Every secret was a bomb
I’m reaching for a Kleenex
Crying for a stranger
Will it rise up like a phoenix
Or that baby in a manger

I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know
Anymore
I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know
Who you are
I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know
Anyone

I know for sure I don’t know
I’m making it up as I go

Who’s that breaking like a fever
I don’t know
Who’s that making me believe you
I don’t know
Who’s that voice I hear inside me
Telling me the way to go
Saying love won’t be denied me
Even if I do not know

I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know
Anymore
I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know
Who you are
I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know
Anyone
I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know
I don’t know I don’t know-know-know-know
