You Don't Know What's Going On

You Don't Know What's Going On - Nickel Creek

Well it's time for me to live

The good life on the road

And to forgive her

For the lies that she sold me

We were falling in love and that's what you do

I didn't know and I feel like a fool

Now watching her go

'Cause I played by the rules

I guess we were above

And that's what I get for trying my best

To believe in her

To believe I could turn it around

To keep bailing out the water

While the ship went down

To keep calling her name

When we started to drown

You can tell me I should have known better

You can ask me why

I didn't see it coming

'Til it got inside me

You can say it's all right

You can think it's all wrong

But you don't know what's going on

You don't know what's going on

So the road led to your door

The good life ain't the good life anymore

If it doesn't include you

If you send me away

'Cause you don't believe I tried my best

To believe in her

To believe I could turn it around

To keep bailing out the water

While the ship went down

To keep calling her name

When we started to drown

You can tell me I should have known better

You can ask me why

I didn't see it coming

'Til it got inside me

You can think it's all wrong

I can hope it's all right

But I don't know what's going on

I just know that I tried

And I tried and I'll try for you

If you want me to

If you can be the girl who

Believes in me

Who believes I can turn it around

Who keeps bailing out the water

While the ship goes down

To keep calling her name

When we started to drown

You can tell me I should have known better

You can ask me why

I didn't see it coming

'Til it got inside me

You can say it's all right

You can think it's all wrong

But you don't know what's going on

You don't know what's going on

You don't know what's going on
