You Can’t Know Everything (London dressing room snippet 18/11/15) Songtext
von Deacon Blue

I wish I was a painter now
I′d paint all of this somehow
Words just don't come quick enough
To catch that weak winter light
Leaking in from above

The rain′s gone off for a while
Probably coming back in style
Short glimpses of near perfection
Thanks, but I'll walk and keep my coat on

You can't know everything
You′re such an innocent soul
You can′t learn anything
Unless you let somebody show you
And you'll not know everything
Even if you started right now
You must trust someone
Someday darling trust′s all you know

(Woah, woah, woah, woah)


Here come those sirens again
Or is it just my dreams that they're in?
Racing towards an ending
When everything seems to be beginning

You can′t know everything
You're such an innocent soul
You can′t learn anything
Unless you let somebody show you
And you'll not know everything
Even if you started right now
You must trust someone
Someday darling trust's all you know

(Woah, woah, woah, woah)
(Woah, woah)

You can′t know everything
You′re such an innocent soul
You can't learn anything
Unless you let somebody show you
And you′ll not know everything
Even if you started right now
You must trust someone
Someday darling trust's all you know


You can′t know everything
You're such an innocent soul
You can′t learn anything
Unless you let somebody show you
And you'll not know everything
Even if you started right now
You must trust someone
Someday darling trust's all you know

(Woah, woah, woah, woah)
(Woah, woah, woah, woah)
