I Don`t Know What It Is — текст песни (Rufus Wainwright)

I don`t know what it is

But you got to do it

I don`t know where to go

But you got to be there

I don`t know where to fall

But I know that`s it`s comfortable where

I don`t know where it is

Putting all of my time in learning to care

And a bucket of rhymes I threw up somewhere

Want a locket of who made me lose

My perfunctory view of all that is around

And of all that I do

So I knock on the door, take a step that is new

Never been here before

Is there anyone else who`s too

In love with beauty

Playing all of the games

And thinks three`s company

Is there anyone else who has slightly mysterious bruises

I don`t know what it is

Sick of looking around at friendly faces

All declaring a war on far off places

Is there anyone else who is through

With complaining about what`s done unto us

So I knock on the door

And I am on a train

Going god knows where to

To get me over, to get me over

Get me heaven or hell, Calais or Dover

I was hoping the train was my big number

Taking the Santa Fe and the Atchison Topeka

But we`re chugging along, Dunaway by the crossing

And could be heading for Poland or limbo or Lower Manhattan

Find myself running around



I don`t know what it is

To get me over (x3)



To get me over

You gotta to do it

You gotta be there
