Always keeping up with the current news
Little pieces of conversation you could use
In deep discussions you rehearse in your head
Where everybody there wants your opinions said
Because you’ve read everything on the topic that exists
You wrote pages and pages and made up all the lists
Of what we will do when we get where we’re going
But for now the direction I guess you just aren’t showing
Nobody knows you… like I do
Nobody knows you…
But you know love true
There’s such a rich world spinning around behind your eyes
Little girl, straight and curled up, I hear it in your sigh
You should make it up as you go along that’s the way to go
Where your taking all of us when you don’t really know
What you give out to the people looking for your leading
Is enough but it’s barely some of what you’ve been reading
The stacks of books that you spend all that time inside of
Turning pages where the real people change and fight and love
Nobody knows you… like I do
Nobody knows you…
But you know love true
Now let’s give up on trying to keep up with them
They’re not going anywhere except where they’ve already been
I’ll listen to what you say you can tell me what to do
Because I know what you have to tell me we both always knew
Nobody knows you… like I do
Nobody knows you…
But you know love true
