First thing you need to know, I'm not from this town
I once lived way down south, moved back an moved around
I am like a prophet, I tell her late at night
I know where she's heading, I know she's doing fine
She tells me things like this every day or so
She tells me things like this, it's all I need to know
Next thing you need to know, I'm like an open book
I never cry at weddings, I hide where you won't look
I am like a painter, I tell her late at night
I know where the colors go, I know she's doing fine
She tells me things like this every day or so
She tells me things like this, it's all I need to know
Something that you need to know, I'll probably break your heart
Take too long to find my soul, I'll go back to the start
I am like a dancer, I tell her late at night
I know every move she makes, I know she's doing fine
She tells me things like this every day or so
She tells me things like this, it's all I need to know
