You Know What I Mean Poem by Daniel Wittfoth

Verse 1: (Acustic Guitar)

Use to be
but not anymore
never thought this is how the story would go
It was written there between each and every line
hidden just enough out of sight
to keep the truth from the lies

Verse 2:

How many tears can really fall
isn't there a point when a well runs dry
When those dark angry clouds part
giving way to sunshine and blue skies
isn't that when the other shoe goes and drops

Chorus:

You know what I mean
moments after that last big fight
Because come a new morning sunrise
it's only the one left feeling lonely within
Trying to save just one memory
before even that gets torn away
You know what I mean
dont you know
you know what I mean

Verse 3:

Telephone rings
do I dare answer it
Knock at the door
but god knows
I just want to stay here
Under the covers
all the lights off
Drowning in my tears
feeling the loss
Remembering how those childhood fairytales use to end
without torn pages and words fading away

Chorus:

You know what I mean
moments after that last big fight
Because come a new morning sunrise
it's only the one left feeling lonely within
Trying to save just one memory
before even that gets torn away
You know what I mean
don't you know
you know what I mean

Verse 4:

I have lived in hope
believed in promises
Walked that extra long mile
searching for the gold at rainbows end
I've even smiled all the while
knowing it was my own heart breaking

Chorus:

You know what I mean
moments after that last big fight
Because come a new morning sunrise
it's only the one left feeling lonely
Trying to save just one memory
before even that gets torn away
You know what I mean
don't you know
you know what I mean.....
