I Want to Know

(album: 10 Song Demo - 1996)

I put my questions in the rosary box
And seven candles in the dark
And angels hover around this room
And they somehow know my heart
If I remembered you before I met you
And knew you were my man
If there's a reason I should know these things
If there's a mission or a plan
Then I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know

From the river outside my window
To the blood inside my veins
When I'm crying in the yellow taxi
When I'm sleeping on the train
If I am now just a tragic figure
From an ancient mystery play
From a story you just had to tell me
When I would not go away
Then I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know

You are driven in your own direction
And I will go my own
With your picture in a hidden locket
Carved from our heart stones
If there's a reason why this should not happen
A chance we will regret
Let's stop the carousel and stop the music
And show me the next step
'Cause I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
