I don’t know the ocean’s song
Don’t know what the brooklets say
At the eve I listen long
But the words just slip away

I don’t know the poppy’s red
In the wheat and in the rye
All the flowers in the bed
Bring a thought of you — that’s why

I don’t know, I don’t know — but I know you
I don’t know, I don’t know — it’s always true
I don’t know the birds, the bees, but you bring me to my knees
I don’t know the morning sky, I don’t know the reason why

I don’t know why Mars glows bright
Moving through the heaven’s night
Don’t know why the stars all cling
But you are my everything

I don’t know what’s in your eyes
Made my sleeping heart arise
Every hill and every tree
Brings a thought of you to me

I don’t know, I don’t know — but I know you
I don’t know, I don’t know — it’s always true
I don’t know the birds, the bees, but you bring me to my knees
I don’t know the morning sky, I don’t know the reason why
