i know what i know-steve forbert Şarkı Sözleri

i know what i know,
i see what i see
and whatever will be and not be
is not up to me;
i struggle and strain
again and again
while the power that makes and breaks things
works effortlessly.

i know what i know.

i scheme and i try,
i grab at the sky,
but my urge for that whole control thing
will never fulfill;
i dream and i plan,
i do what i can,
but whatever gets done and not done
is strictly god's will.

i know what i know.
i know what i know.
i know what i know.
i know what i know.
i know what i know.

i know what i know,
though i can't speak for you,
i know what i know
yeah, from my point of view...

the man in the moon
would sing a new tune,
but he can't rearrange or change things
and nobody can
alone on their own;
i see what i'm shown
and the power to mold and hold things
is out of my hands.

i know what i know.
i know what i know.
i know what i know.
i know what i know.
i know what i know.
