I Can't Tell You How

(Alan Semerdjian)
I CAN’T TELL YOU HOW/a. semerdjian

Hey satellite what’s the news today
All these crazy folks on the same highway
And oh it’s a loaded gun

Dreamers dream dream and the prophets scream
If we’re gonna make it in this world we got to make it one scene
And oh there’s only one scene

But I can’t tell you I can’t tell you how
But I can’t tell you I can’t tell you how

When the little bit in you that’s been down too long
Is ready to explode like a shooting star
Let her go and watch her shine

When the ghost of Walt Whitman comes up to you
Says everything is possible when everything’s new
So oh everything everyday

But I can’t tell you I can’t tell you how
But I can’t tell you I can’t tell you how…

Solo

When imagination’s locked behind a gate
Beauty’s in the song that penetrates

But I can’t tell you I can’t tell you how
But I can’t tell you I can’t tell you how
But I can’t tell you I can’t tell you how
But I can’t tell you I can’t tell you how
