Yes I Know
Bill & Gloria Gaither Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just another day, I'm sitting back and I hope
That I can release the pain, I'm trying to stress every note
Trying to express all the thoughts on my chest, I know
That I'm really just such a sad sad hopeless soul
You can achieve anything that you want I know
You find everything you're searching for, I hope
The music offered it's hand, I reached out and took it, so
I hope that the music takes me everywhere I wanna go
Take a look at where I stand
Ask myself if I'm content with the man
I see in the mirror when I look at it, and
If I had to answer that question, probably say that I ain't worth a damn
What I feel like, on the way down?
Trapped in my mind, can't find a way out
Listening to my shit, you prolly like "What he say now?"
He singing 'bout all this heartbreak now
But I'm the one hurt you
I know it's in the past, but tell me, does it still hurt you?
I never planned for shit to end this way
But I'm young, I was dumb, promise I changed all my ways
If I could get one more try with you, I wouldn't do the same
I know it's took a while, but now I'm taking the blame
It's such a shame, that I just ruined my name
I don't know if I'll ever really find true love again
And to be real, I don't want anyone but you
Fucking all these bitches, screwing hoes, but that shit don't soothe
All the bruises and cuts from the past
I still got the scars, and I pray that all them my last
So baby just to close, I wanna apologize
I'm sorry for all the fights, and I regret all the lies
If you're ever up for it, i'm down for another try
Maybe it's possible, or maybe I'm just not in time
Just another day I'm sitting back, and I hope
That I can release the pain, I'm trying to stress every note
Trying to express all the thoughts on my chest I know
That I'm really just such a sad sad hopeless soul
You can achieve anything that you want I know
You find everything you're searching for, I hope




The music offered it's hand, I reached out and took it, so
I hope that the music takes me everywhere I wanna go

Line by Line Meaning

I'm going down this lonesome road
I am embarking on a difficult journey alone


To see my fate or victory
To discover whether my future holds success or failure


God must help us there to win
Only with divine intervention can we attain our goal


I'm coming back but I don't know when
I will return, but I am uncertain when I shall do so


I hate to leave my mother dear
It brings me grief to depart from my beloved mother


My father who is old and gray
My aging father who may depend on me


But my true love I know you'll wait
But I believe my beloved will remain faithful and wait for my return


For me to come back to me to stay
So that we can remain together forever


Will you be here when I come home
I wonder if you will still be here when I return


Or will your love fade like a rose
Or if your love will wilt away like a dying rose


I could never come back should you be gone
Without love, my return would be pointless


My love for you nobody knows
My love for you is a mystery to others

Come, ye sinners, lost and lonely
Jesus' blood can make you free
For He saved the worst among you
When He saved a wretch like me
And I know, yes, I know
Jesus' blood can make the vilest sinner clean
And I know, yes, I know
Jesus' blood can make the vilest sinner clean
To the faint He giveth power
Through the mountains makes a way
Findeth water in the desert
Turns the night to golden day
And I know, yes, I know
Jesus' blood can make the vilest sinner clean
And I know, yes, I know
Jesus' blood can make the vilest sinner clean
In temptation He is near thee
Holds the powers of hell at bay
Guides you to the path of safety
Gives you grace for every day
And I know, yes, I know
Jesus' blood can make the vilest sinner clean
And I know, yes, I know
Jesus' blood can make the vilest sinner clean
Jesus' blood can make the vilest sinner clean
Oh! The blood of Jesus!
Jesus' blood can make the vilest sinner clean
