HOW CAN I NOT KNOW? (c) 1992 Monica E. Gómez Verse 1: I have seen the red-gold light of day outline purple mountains as I pray. How can I not know you love me? How can I not know you are the way? Verse 2: I have watched the white moon in the night tapestries of mist move through her light. How can I not know you love me? How can I not know that all is right? Refrain: I stand here on this tilting planet with my head thrown back to feel your breath. As surely as the earth flies through black space I’m moving closer to my death, each moment a gift. Verse 3: I have felt the warm blue summer rain wash dusty leaves to emerald once again. How can I not know you love me? How can I not hear you call my name? Verse 4: I’ve touched a bright orange petal and just smiled at rolling fields of poppies growing wild. How can I not know you love me? How can I not know I am your child? Refrain |
