I have a woman inside my soul, Her eyes sombre and sad. She waves her hand to try to reach me, But I cant 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, Its pale even in a warm summers day. It stretches into the mist and calls me, But I dont 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, Its old and mossy, covered in dead leaves. It stands with an engraving on it surface, But I dont 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, Its hard and shining in shades of grey. No footsteps ever made their marks, And I dont 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, Its cold and clear and carries a tune. But I dont know what it sings and tells, I dont 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)
