I Don’t Know

Lyrics

[Verse 1] An old friend passed away, the other day, three weeks shy of 31 I went to pay respects and say a word to the parents of their son He was more than kind, had my back in a bind, he'll be on my mind and with me everyday I can only hope, to get enough rope, to go see him where he is now someday [Chorus] And I don't know, and I don't know Why some remain, while others go Can't comprehend, I don't understand I won't even try to pretend I don't know (I don't know, I don't know) I don't know [Verse 2] In my search, I went to church to see if I could find out for myself But nothin's been found on holy ground, and the answer's not in a book upon shelf Seems еvery year somebody lеaves here, and leaves me here questioning it all I don't believe God can't receive a complaint on the end of some phone call [Chorus] 'Cause I don't know, and I don't know Why some remain, while others go Can't comprehend, I don't understand I won't even try to pretend I don't know (I don't know, I don't know) I don't know (I don't know, I don't know) [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] There's a cemetery, starin' at me, every time I drive out of town I wonder if those souls are up above or simply underground I'll guess I'll find in my own time, if there's another side or not But until then, I won't think of the end, only about the time I got [Chorus] 'Cause I don't know, I don't know Why some remain, while others go Can't comprehend, I don't understand I won't even try to pretend I don't know (I don't know, I don't know) I don't know (I don't know, I don't know) I don't know (I don't know, I don't know) I don't know (I don't know, I don't know)
