I may never get what I want
00:47
But I'm happy just to die tryin'
00:53
And I hope I ain't done nobody wrong
00:58
But I miss you smilin'
01:03
And I'm lookin' for a cure 'cause I'm bored to tears
01:08
And I'm stuck in here, stuck out here, stuck in here
01:13
We lived through another day It's a good excuse to celebrate
01:25
Take a number, knock on wood
01:31
We'll find a reason to feel good
01:34
I know you know I wanna know how I feel
01:37
I can't even tell
01:42
I can't even tell
01:45
I can't even tell
01:49
No one knows nothin' about me
01:56
I'm guessin' I'll just keep 'em guessin'
01:59
No one sees what I see
02:04
This is my blessin'
02:09
And I'm lookin' for a way to get out of here
02:13
Get me out of here, out of here, out of here
02:19
We lived through another day
02:25
It's a good excuse to celebrate
02:28
Take a number, knock on wood
02:31
Find a reason to feel good
02:35
I know you know I wanna know how I feel
02:38
I can't even tell
02:43
I can't even tell
02:46
I can't even tell
02:49
I'm out of here, out of here, out of here
02:58
I know you know I want to know how I feel
03:13
I can't tell
03:18
I know you know I'll tell you if it's real
03:21
It sounded like a bell
03:25
I can't even tell
03:29
I can't even tell
03:32
I can't even tell
03:35

[English]
I may never get what I wantBut I'm happy just to die tryin'
And I hope I ain't done nobody wrong
But I miss you smilin'
And I'm lookin' for a cure 'cause I'm bored to tears
And I'm stuck in here, stuck out here, stuck in here
We lived through another day It's a good excuse to celebrate
Take a number, knock on wood
We'll find a reason to feel good
I know you know I wanna know how I feel
I can't even tell
I can't even tell
I can't even tell
No one knows nothin' about me
I'm guessin' I'll just keep 'em guessin'
No one sees what I see
This is my blessin'
And I'm lookin' for a way to get out of here
Get me out of here, out of here, out of here
We lived through another day
It's a good excuse to celebrate
Take a number, knock on wood
Find a reason to feel good
I know you know I wanna know how I feel
I can't even tell
I can't even tell
I can't even tell
I'm out of here, out of here, out of here
I know you know I want to know how I feel
I can't tell
I know you know I'll tell you if it's real
It sounded like a bell
I can't even tell
I can't even tell
I can't even tell
