If I know everything
I can close
The unread book
Not to read it
If I've seen everything
of everything
It's a perfect reason
not to watch
But if I have yet to know
the blue sky
I have to go and measure it too
If I've done
with my hands
everything I can
then let them rest
If I've used my legs
to go wherever I can
then let them stay still
But if I have yet to know
the height of a mountain
I have to go and
I have to go and
I have to go and measure it too
If I know you
I can close
my eyes
in front of you
If I know all of your thoughts
I can turn my back to you,
your smile
But If I have yet to know everything
about your world
I have to come and measure it too
