What We Already Know Lyrics - Mark Owen

I heard a whisper in my sleep last night 

It held me, like a mother holds her newborn child 

Oh woah oh, Oh woah oh, 

And in that moment that I held to keep 

I asked myself 

Why am I afraid of life? 

What am I waiting for? 

There's so much more that you've never seen before 

And your dreams will stay grateful 

And what we already know 

Open the front door, take a step outside 

It's Winter, it's 95 degrees inside 

Oh woah oh, Oh woah oh, 

When I think of all the things I've missed 

I have regret 

But hey man that's just part of life 

And now I face a brand new day, burning like the sun 

The starting line is over, the race already won 

Well there's so much more that you've never seen before 

And your dreams will stay grateful 

And what we already know 

And what we already know 

Mrs Harper with her bleached blonde hair, and a sweet caress 

Is kissing her old man goodbye 

(????ing him home from the graveyard shift 

Breakfast time as they arrive) 

I hear the ringing of a mobile phone unanswered 

(And the man from number 56 has a beautiful car) 

And a beautiful house lands on the hill 

(Where an old man whistles his favourite tune) 

While he walks his grandchildren to school (school) 

And I remember school 

(In my head I see ya) 

What a memory.... 

(Turn around to greet ya) 

What a place to be... 

(How are you?) 

What a memory.... 

(How are you?) 

And I wonder where... 

(I'm good, are you?) 

...my old friends could be...
