What would you say if you could say anything?
If you could say anything to me?
If you could tell me just one thing?
One thing above all others
One thing that I really should know
One thing that would help me or help those I love
Is it something I already should know?
What would you do if you could do just one thing?
You never had a chance to do before?
If you could do just one thing. One thing above all others
Can I do it for you? Can I help you see it?
Have I already done this for you?
Is this something that I already should know?
Somebody knows what happened
Somebody knows what's true
She danced second line in New Orleans
She stepped down the streets of Soulard
Never met anyone who was wiser
I only met a few who know what you knew
If you could see me now. If you could see the things I've seen.
Maybe they are the same that you saw
I wonder if you felt, felt the same way
I wish I would have asked you before
Sad or happy, depending on the day
But with people who pulled you through
But who didn't have to watch over you
Somebody knows what happened
Somebody knows what's true
Would anyone even believe me?
I knew the queen of the second line dancers
The queen of the second line dancers
And I still talk to you
