Feeling of Being (What Maisie Knew) Lyrics by Lucy Schwartz

Bet you if you sink
You'd swim a little further
And I bet you if you cried
You'd understand me better
So I take a little time just sailing down the river
And I'm throwing out my line to see if I can catch the

Feeling of being
How still the night
Feeling of being
One little light

When I close my eyes
I hear the water lapping
On the side of the boat
Pretending I am catching
And I sail into the light I'm searching and I'm wishing for the

Feeling of being
How still the night
Feeling of being
One little light

Wonder if we ever really know each other
And I wonder if we ever find out what we're after
And the truth of it is we're both winding down the river
And if you could only let go,
Find the hidden silver and the

Feeling of being
How still the night
Feeling of being
One little light
