Sometimes if you want to have a clean shirt you've got to wash it
Sometimes if you want to know what the time is
You know you've really got to watch it
Sometimes if you really don't want to go the way the world is
You just can't stop it
And I don't know which one I rely on but I don't rely on it

And all these things I know to be true
And each one brings me closer to you, you
And all the things I've ever loved

Sometimes if you want to know which way your train is going
All you've got to do is dare to catch it
There's a sea of longing in my heart
But I know I cannot ever to sail it
And the story of the pursuit of the truth keeps on going but it's so chaotic
I read my books on the flowers, the birds and the burden of the bees I keep them in my pocket

And all these things I know to be true
And each one brings me closer to you, you
And all the things I've ever loved
And every day with the glory of it all
I find... cold north wind endurance

This is the last post I'll ever write while I've got a fever for the pages to unlock it
And in the woods there's all to feel and naught to fear for the failure of the falcon
And all the kids in the house tonight you know they're really rockin'
And all the folks you know
They don't want to get off they want to get on it
And all these things I know to be true
And each one brings me closer to you, you
And in all weathers we are realised
Its water drips and feeds back through the night
To be bathed in the suns yellow healing light

And all the things I've ever loved
Bring me closer to you, you
Bring me closer to you, you
Bring me closer to you, you
And all the things I've ever loved
Each day with glory of it all
I find
