I thought i did what's right   I thought i had the answer   I thought i chose the surest road   But that road brought me here   So i put up a fight   And told you how to help me   And just when i had given up   The truth has come clear      Chorus      For you know better than I   You know the way   I've let go, the need to know why   Cause you know better than I      If this has been a test   I cannot see the reason   But maybe knowin', I don't know   Is part of gettin through   I try to do what's best   And faith has made it easy   To see the best thing I can do   Is put my faith in you      Chorus      I saw one cloud and thought it was the sky   I saw a bird and thought that I could follow   But it was you who taught them how to fly   If I let you reach me, will you teach me      For you know better than I   You know the way   I've let go, the need to know why   I'll take what answers you supply   Cause you know better than I
