Somehow She Knew Lyrics - David Crosby

Somehow She Knew (7:05) 

Words: David Crosby 

Music: David Crosby and Craig Doerge 

As the room slid into focus 

and he woke up 

With room service at the door 

And he wondered why he 

never spoke up 

About all of that fear before 

It was standing just an inch 

behind him 

A shadow stalking by his side 

A thing he was afraid would 

find him 

And wash him away in the tide

And somehow she know why 

I was crying 

She knew just which fears 

I had not faced 

In her eyes I could see 

Where I was lying to myself 

And a path that she gently traced 

To where the man in the movie said 

Is it all right 

If I miss her tonight 

And the man felt just like me 

They say a wolf in a trap will 

chew off his own leg 

I guess I did the same 

It's what you do with a thing 

you can't handle 

A picture you just can't frame 

Photos 

And from somewhere deep in that movie 

She opened a door in my chest 

And delicately took out a death 

That had never been laid to rest 

And somehow she knew why 

I was crying 

She knew just which fears I had not faced 

In her eyes I could see where 

I was lying 

To myself 

And a path that she gently traced 

To where the man in the movie said 

Is it all right if I miss her tonight 

And the man felt just like me
