Never Known - Tanita Tikaram

Where everybody was

Where everbody go?

Well, I’m so sorry boy

I don’t really know

Oh, how did you do today?

Well, I’m telling you this much

I might seem like a paying girl

But I’ve never had enough

Never known

No — I’m never really known

I ain’t never shown

To come alive

And call my own

I’ll never be Where the sweetness settle me I ain’t seen

Where somebody waits for me Waste half an evening

Wasted half my time

Just to tell how I’m living this

And keeping us in line

Oh, how did you do today?

Well, it never seems to speak

Yes, I’m sure that I’m keeping this

But it’s keeping me too weak

Never known

No — I’m never really known

I ain’t never shown

To come alive

And call my own

I’ll never be Where the sweetness settle me I ain’t seen

Where somebody waits for me Old bones steal weakness

Old bones stay sane

All days come on speak to us You can be what you say

You can be what you say

Air — everybody sings

Everybody dreams

Well, you know how it went for me But it never seemed to mean

Where everybody needs

Where everybody hides

Where the sweetness settles me Well you know if you’re feeling this

It let’s everbody cry

Never known

No — I’m never really known
