I Think I Preferred The Question Lyrics by Foy Vance
Only time will tell if I knew you well
Or if I did not know you at all
It’s heaven, it’s hell
It is well
The spell dispels the more that I talk about it
And in time I’ll show what I truly know
If I truly know anything at all
I relinquished control of all the dreams I was sold
But I heeded my head
And my soul and my heart about it
Tired of all the answers
Slowly sure to run aground
I think I preferred the question
All at once I knew all the things I went through
There was no rhyme nor reason at all
Just a vagrant belief
A pomp and ceremony
But I still have a need and I can’t get my head around it
Tired of all the answers
They’re slowly sure to run aground
I think I preferred the question
One day when I was feeling brave
I got my rage enlisted
I mustered up the courage
And asked if you existed
I stilled my mind
and I did nothing else but listen
I’m tired of all the answers
I’m tired of all the answers
They’re slowly sure to run a ground
I think I preferred the question
