Never Known - Lyrics by Tanita Tikaram


Lyrics
Where everybody was
Where everbody go?
Well, I'm so sorry boy
I don't really know
Oh, how did you do today?
Well, I'm telling you this much
I might seem like a paying girl
But I've never had enough
Never known
No - I'm never really known
I ain't never shown
To come alive
And call my own
I'll never be
Where the sweetness settle me
I ain't seen
Where somebody waits for me
Waste half an evening
Wasted half my time
Just to tell how I'm living this
And keeping us in line
Oh, how did you do today?
Well, it never seems to speak
Yes, I'm sure that I'm keeping this
But it's keeping me too weak
Never known
No - I'm never really known
I ain't never shown
To come alive
And call my own
I'll never be
Where the sweetness settle me
I ain't seen
Where somebody waits for me
Old bones steal weakness
Old bones stay sane
All days come on speak to us
You can be what you say
You can be what you say
Air - everybody sings
Everybody dreams
Well, you know how it went for me
But it never seemed to mean
Where everybody needs
Where everybody hides
Where the sweetness settles me
Well you know if you're feeling this
It let's everbody cry
Never known
No - I'm never really known
I ain't never shown
To come alive
And call my own
I'll never be
Where the sweetness settle me
I ain't seen
Where somebody waits for me
