Lyrics to The Only Thing I Know
The Only Thing I Know Video:
when you came back from trenton,

all the sparkle was gone.

and you stood in the shadow

and the curtains were drawn



and i know you're lying.

and you know you're lying too.

that is just about the only thing i know about you.



when you pocketed your eyeshadow

and you picked up the phone,

stepped out on the balcony

and drank in the drone.



and i know you're leaving.

and you know you're leaving too.

that is just about the only thing i know about you.



when you stop on the sidewalk

and you looked up above you,

warm wet air came down to shelter me.

how much do i love you?



well you know you're dying.

and i know you're dying too.

that is just about the only thing i know about you.
