I Know It Well

I know the feeling

That's written on your face

Where you don't seem quite yourself

You're all out of place

I know it well

Hope springs eternal

Twenty-four hours a day

Yet still we convince ourselves

It's out of our way

I know it well

When your heart's retreating

From this lonely world

That's the time that you must stay

For it needs you

It needs you

I hope tomorrow

Is clearer than today

Though in your house sorrow dwells

It never stays

I know it well
