Dar Williams - The One Who Knows Lyrics
Time it was I had a dreamAnd you're that dream come true.If I had the world to giveI'd give it all to you.I'll take you to the mountains,I will take you to the sea.I'll show you how this life became a miracle to me.You'll fly away, but take my hand until that day.So when they ask how far love goesWhen my job's done you'll be the one who knows.All the things you treasure mostwill be the hardest won.I will watch you struggle longbefore the answers come.But I won't make it harder,I'll be there to cheer you on.I'll shine the light that guides you downThe road you're walking on.You'll fly away, but take my hand until that day.So when they ask how far love goesWhen my job's done you'll be the one who knows.Before the mountains call to you,before you leave this home,Wanna teach your heart to trustAs I will teach my own.But sometimes I will ask the moonWhere it shined upon you lastAnd shake my head and laugh and sayIt all went by so fast.You'll fly away, but take my hand until that day.So when they ask how far love goesWhen my job's done you'll be the one who knows.
