I don’t know why the falling rain
Has left the sky above
Or why the heavy clouds
Have darkened like they have
I don’t know why the swirling wind
Blows the children’s laughter through
These winter morning streets
Beneath skies clear and blue
I know nothing of these things
I only know I still love you
I don’t know where this road I walk
Will end or what I’ll see
Beyond the wild flowers’ scent
And the lines of poplar trees
I don’t know why this veil of fog
Has fallen on the land
Like I’ve entered a cathedral
Where I kneel and clasp my hands
I know nothing of these things
I only know I still love you
I don’t know why this silent street
In the moon’s dim, silver light
Wide and straight, recedes
Into the country night
I don’t know what has brought me here
Quite despite my will
To meet you at this station
In this evening’s chill
I know nothing of these things
I only know I still love you
I don’t know what time this train leaves
For Amsterdam tonight
I don’t know why we are going
I don’t know if this is right
I don’t know what I am doing
With my heart or with my hands
My soul’s torn from my body
As I try to understand
I know nothing of these things
But I know I still love you
I know I still love you
