Lyrics
NEVER KNOW
Day over night over night over day
I bundle my fears and I wish them away
Night over day over day over night
Never live in the past I just follow the light
Takes dirt to make a flower
Takes some rain to make it grow
Best thing about tomorrow
Is yesterday you never know
Bad weeks follow good weeks follow bad weeks follow good
Takin' stock of all those good weeks makes me know I never should
Good weeks follow bad weeks follow good weeks follow bad
Lookin' back at all those bad weeks were the best I ever had
Never knew I had the power
Never knew which way to go
Best thing about tomorrow
Is yesterday you never know
yesterday you never know
