I Think I Knew

[Verse 1: Cate Le Bon] There's no talking to him His eyes are upon dust, steam, and tepid water I am home just to sit with him Aging at the notion of a lifetime on earth -- whim There's no working it out My wanting is beyond all fears of formula There's no boundary to devotion No territory to handle and cut neatly into -- three [Chorus: Cate Le Bon] I wish I knew, I wish I knew I wish I knew I wish I knew, I wish I knew I wish I knew [Verse 2: Perfume Genius] No sign on the door No title to the deeds I'm digging for A pun you wade into that ocean Blot out all uncertainty And call it as I -- be The air is all ribbons of ice Softening the corners of my eyes I was bold, I was the author Doubt crept in like sickly dogs And dragged me through the -- freeze [Chorus: Cate Le Bon & Perfume Genius] I wish I knew, I wish I knew I wish I knew I wish I knew, I wish I knew I wish I knew I think I knew, I think I knew I think I knew I think I knew, I think I knew I think I knew [Verse 3: Perfume Genius & Cate Le Bon] What did you want? (Everything) How would you have him? (On my knees) There is no one that can't be opened This one to cut the heart in two The other one to -- choose [Chorus: Cate Le Bon & Perfume Genius] I wish I knew, I wish I knew I wish I knew I wish I knew, I wish I knew I wish I knew I think I knew, I think I knew I think I knew I think I knew, I think I knew I think I knew I think I knew, I think I knew I think I knew I think I knew, I think I knew I think I knew
