If You Knew
Mt. Desolation
If you saw me walking down the street
Wearing that dead, distant gaze
Would you stop and cross the road?
And if you knew that I was on the edge
And thinking of some better place
Would you call me on the phone?
And if you knew that I can hardly sleep at night
Voices fighting in my head at night
And I often speak to you
Would you answer if you knew?
If you knew, if you knew
Would you call me if you knew?
Well, I guess you might, but I'd be surprised
And maybe that's where the problem lies
But I'd feel better if I knew
If I knew that soon the phone would ring
And a voice would say
Hey brother, how you doing?
I feel like you'd know what to do
And just that thought would pull me through
Would you call me if you knew?
If you knew, if you knew
I feel like you'd know what to do
If you knew, if you knew
Would you call me if you knew?
