[Verse 1]
I know what my weaknesses are
Probably better than you do
Revolutionary Chinese propaganda
The color of blue
[Chorus 1]
I thought I knew what my weaknesses were anyway
And then the orange tree blossomed last Saturday
And there was nothing in it but pain for me
[Verse 2]
I know what can hurt me real bad
And what can't hurt me anymore
I know how to rise up with the sun
And I am learning what sleep's good for
[Chorus 2]
I thought I'd figured out the world in its circular way
Then I saw the sun fall out of the sky the other day
There was nothing in it but pain for me
[Verse 3]
Squirrels climbing trees in bloom
Soft yellow light spilling into the room
My favorite records
My favorite books
The people I loved
The people I almost loved
[Outro]
Light beckoning, wind whistling
Hey hey, hey hey
Daybreak, river rolling
Hey, hey
La la la la
