I Can Tell

I tried for understanding this But I never faced it Instead, fight what I've seen I tried to have an open mind That kept becoming clouded by reality In spite of what I might be told I can tell when something's wrong I keep on praying what over and over Can only last so long We never lost the closeness It became a matter of A life of verity Perhaps what we had shared most Was a sense of emptiness That seemed to fill our needs In spite of what I might be told I can tell when something's wrong I keep on praying what over and over Can only last so long Move along move along and lose a friend Just as well, just as well we've reached the end Ah, things have changed I think I'm done with trying I don't understand Or maybe I understand too well But then that emptiness I thought was gone comes back sometimes And drops me in it's well In spite of what I might be told I can tell when something's wrong I keep on praying what over and over Can only last so long
