The Brilliant Inventions - We Don't Have The Words lyrics

I drove down South in a used white Saturn Watched the clouds in rolling patterns With my doubts hanging out in back In Charlottesville someone snapped my antenna I sang myself all the way to Atlanta The moon was out, the sky was charcoal black Chasing taillights in the night Sometimes there's nothing to decide Like songbirds we know what we know Even though we don't have the words All alone with a stranger's address Stereo and a futon mattress, down the road With all I owned between the lanes I told her twelve, but it was much later I found myself rolling into Decatur The stars were out and shined down like rain And I can't remember every part Sometimes facts obscure the heart Lines get blurred But we know what we know Even though we don't have the words Time goes by, dreams of fragile flowers Left to die At five AM, don't know what I was feeling I watched the fan turn round the ceiling Like who I am, who I've been all the way But as the light fell through a dirty window pane I knew I knew something I couldn't explain No win or lose just moves with no mistakes And I tried to put it in a song But every time in came out wrong So I prefer to say I know what I know I know what I know I know what I know Even though I don't have the words
