How was I to know?
Kinship
There in the reverie
It's a climbing wind
We go through, two by two
Not asking why
How was I to sing?
Happens all of the time
They say
You and I were supposed to know
Each other
Better than the clouds these days
It's a madding sanctuary
Clearly
Honest
Always
Life in the time of captivity
Love in the time of sanctuary
Life in the time of captivity
Life in the time of singing songs
How was I to know?
How was I to know?
Kinship there in the reverie
Guess it goes to show
We don't speak
Half truths each
When we have the day
It's a climbing wind
We go through, two by two
Not asking why
It was all a show then
Blue river true
Running to you
Always
Life in the time of captivity
Love in the time of sanctuary
Life in the time of captivity
Life in the time of singing songs
How was I to know?
How was I to know?
Some go out to Rikers in a moment's grace
I was hanging on coattails
Fare thee wells
All that jiving around
Guess it goes to show
We don't speak half truths each
When we have the day
You and I are supposed to now
