I have a woman inside my soul,

Her eyes sombre and sad.

She waves her hand to try to reach me,

But i can't hear what she says.



I wish i knew what she says,

I wish i knew what she wants,

I wish i knew what she says to me,

I wish i knew what she means to me.



I see an asphalt road inside my soul,

It's pale even in a warm summer's day.

It stretches into the mist and calls me,

But i don't know what it takes.



I wish i knew what it takes, (i wish i knew)

I wish i knew what it gives, (i wish i knew)

I wish i knew what it says to me, (i wish i knew)

I wish i knew what it means to me. (i wish i knew)



I see a tombstone inside my soul,

It's old and mossy, covered in dead leaves.

It stands with an engraving on it surface,

But i don't know what it reads.



I wish i knew what it reads, (i wish i knew)

I wish i knew what it says, (i wish i knew)

I wish i knew what it says to me, (i wish i knew)

I wish i knew what it means to me. (i wish i knew)



(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, hey)



I feel snow covering inside my soul,

It's hard and shining in shades of grey.

No footsteps ever made their marks,

And i don't know when it melts.



I wish i knew when it melts, (i wish i knew)

I wish i knew when it happens, (i wish i knew)

I wish i knew if it happens at all, (i wish i knew)

I wish i knew what it means to me. (i wish i knew)



I hear a stream running inside my soul,

It's cold and clear and carries a tune.

But i don't know what it sings and tells,

I don't know where it goes.



I wish i knew what it sings,

I wish i knew where it goes,

I wish i knew what it sings, (i wish i knew)

I wish i knew where it goes, (i wish i knew)

I wish i knew what it sings. (i wish i knew)



(i wish i knew)

(i wish i knew) (yeah!)

(i wish i knew)

(i wish i knew)
