I make it my firm policy
to make my bed with honesty
so, i donand't sleep with shadows in the room
the truth is iand've been holdinand' back
the way i feel about the fact
that iand'm not as close as i want to be with you
Thereand's still so much more of you i long to know
and i wonand't be content until i do
Cause what do i know
if i donand't really know you
though i may blow the minds of men
how can i say that i know
anything of love
unless i find it in your hands
Iand'm not playing playground games
iand'm not reading dick and jane
and i donand't need a pass to walk the halls
iand've graduated in my faith
and still iand've barely pushed the gate
that opens to the one true know-it-all
I could win a nobel price or rule the world
but, i would die a genius with no clue
(chorus)
Life is such a cruel deception
without you to lead my quest
iand'd fail the test
