"A Little Knowledge" lyrics

"A Little Knowledge"

Now I know to love you
Is not to know you
Oh I got too near to you
Oh, in the court of contempt
I have to tell you
One thing I'm certain
I've been overtaken, girl
Oh, by the need to be loved

We don't have forever
To find a reason
How I lost the will to love you
Out in the way of the world
Maybe I could see you
When this is over
Maybe when our hearts are healed
Oh what a day to behold

There'll be a day, lovers away
(You can) call me and mend a broken heart
There'll be a time long after mine
(He will) call you and mend a broken heart

Not a lot to say now
Except I miss you
Not a lot to take your place
Oh, in the heart of the boy
Ooh a little knowledge
Is so exciting
You became a part of me
Oh, and the world that we knew

I guess it's a sickness
That keeps me wanting
Ate away the heart of me (heart of me)
Oh, and the heart that I loved
Still beyond believing
In love forever
Quite the brightest star, girl
Oh, in the reason of sleep

There'll be a day, lovers away
(You can) call me and mend a broken heart
There'll be a time long after mine
(He will) call you and mend a broken heart

Listen to her say

Got a little radio
Held to my body
I can feel your back beat boy
Moving a muscle of love
Turn it up and press it
I don't understand it
I can feel your message boy
Calling me over and out

Here's a verse for nothing
An introduction
To the way the world will be
Now we're apart and alone
Mustn't be unhappy
When you remember
Lovers never lose each other
Oh, such a lot to be learned
