Linda Eder - How Little We Know lyrics

Just when I'm sure that I've got it all down

Something jumps up and spins me around

Sometimes it's the light from my little boy's eyes

Takin' me by surprise

I've been to the city and I've been to the zoo

Learned all about monkey-see, monkey-do

Somewhere between the false and the true

We all compromise

But you and I broke every rule

That they ever made

Don't ask why? Love is a chance that you take

And like leaves in the wind

At the mercy of whither we blow

How little we know

I have seen the northern lights on a winter's day

Up in Minnesota people like it that way

So much in nature I don't understand

It's a mystery not a plan

Lookin' for answers

Is going nowhere fast

Everything's forever

But nothing seems to last

Come tomorrow, today will be the past

Like waves upon the sand You and I broke every rule

That they ever made

Don't ask why?

Love is a chance that you take

And like leaves in the wind

At the mercy of whither we blow

How little we know

And in the end what matters most

Is how the heart will rise

And see us through the dramas

'Til we realize

How little we know

You and I broke every rule

That they ever made

Don't ask why?

Love is a chance that you take

And like leaves in the wind

At the mercy of whither we blow

How little we know
