Lyrics
All You Need to Know
She was a creature of the used bookstore,
spread out like marmalade across the floor.
An open book that called me to explore.
I caught her eye, and asked her for her name
That made her smile, she said "it's me again"
as deja vu ran witchy through my brain.
The things that seem brand new, they never change
The exit sign burned like a homeward flame.
Chorus:
All you need to know is all you've known before.
All you need to know is all you've known before.
She talked of saving whales and ancient trees
and how you get more saying pretty please
the impolite are magnets for disease.
Then like a dream we reached familiar ground.
She rose and followed me without a sound.
We dropped our books like sentries 'round the bed.
Her fingers traced the pages of my head,
and by the morning, it had all been said.
Refrain:
All you need to know is all you've known before.
All you need to know is all you've known before.
All you need to know is all you've known before.
