Never Meant To Know, a song by Rob Cantor.
Lyrics
Woke up today with a lay of the land Feather in cap & the sun in the sand It was easy It was easy to understand Everything suddenly falls out of sight Every attachment is made of the light That you offered You have offered to give me life See the sky & all the land together again See the way the earth can stay below Who do we think we are? Everything plays a part There are some things we are never meant to know Having enjoyed all the meat from the bone Is perfectly equal to being alone It was even But you breathe & I turn to stone Everything suddenly looks like a sign Easy to see from the outermost clime I believe in what I leave in the way behind See the sky & all the land together again See the way the earth can stay below Who do we think we are? Everything plays a part There are some things we are never meant to know & all the parts combine to one & all of us around the sun Everything will fall away To order from the disarray See the sun the shadows cast From all the times I floated past See the ocean spinning out With all the hope & all the doubt See the sky & all the land together again See the way the earth can stay below Who do we think we are? Everything plays a part There are some things we don't understand Reasons on the other hand There are some things we are never meant to know
Early Lyrics
Woke up today with a lay of the land Feather in cap & the sun in the sand It was easy It was easy to understand Everything suddenly falls out of sight Every attachment is made of the light That you offered You have offered to give me life See the sky & all the land together again See the way the earth can stay below Who do we think we are? Everyone plays a part There are some things we are never meant to know Having enjoyed all the meat from the bone Is perfectly equal to being alone It was even But you breathe & I turn to stone Everything suddenly looks like a sign Easy to see from the outer clime I believe in what I leave in the way behind See the sky & all the land together again See the way the earth can stay below Who do we think we are? Everyone plays a part There are some things we are never meant to know & all the parts combine to one & all of us around the sun The ocean will not fall away And order to the disarray See the sun the shadows cast From all the times I floated past See the ocean spinning out With all the hope & all the doubt See the sky & all the land together again See the way the earth can stay below Who do we think we are? Everyone plays a part There are some things we don't understand Reasons on the other hand There are some things we are never meant to know
