I Can Tell Lyrics

                 I tried for understanding this 
                      But I never faced it 
                  Instead, fight what I've seen 
                  I tried to have an open mind 
              That kept becoming clouded by reality 
                In spite of what I might be told 
                I can tell when something's wrong 
              I keep on praying what over and over 
                      Can only last so long 
 
                   We never lost the closeness 
                      It became a matter of 
                        A life of verity 
                 Perhaps what we had shared most 
                    Was a sense of emptiness 
                  That seemed to fill our needs 
                In spite of what I might be told 
                I can tell when something's wrong 
              I keep on praying what over and over 
                      Can only last so long 
 
             Move along move along and lose a friend 
        Just as well, just as well we've reached the end 
                     Ah, things have changed 
 
                  I think I'm done with trying 
                       I don't understand 
                 Or maybe I understand too well 
                     But then that emptiness 
             I thought was gone comes back sometimes 
                    And drops me in it's well 
                In spite of what I might be told 
                I can tell when something's wrong 
              I keep on praying what over and over 
                      Can only last so long
