I know what it’s like to be loved, to be loved
I know how well it feels
I know what it’s like to have someone to love
To share the air they breathe
And I know what it’s like when they leave

I know what it’s like to be young, to be young
I know what it’s like to be free
I know what it’s like to be out in front
I know how it feels to climb trees
And drop like falling leaves

I know what it’s like to be hurt, to be hurt
I know what it’s like to bleed
I know what it’s like to be misunderstood
And know the truth concealed
I know how Joseph feels

I know what it’s like to be lost, to be lost
Crying in the swirling crowd
I know what it’s like when a hand comes down
And lifts me off the ground
I know what it’s like to be found

Turning pages, ticking time
Wondering what’s on my mind
I was learning long ago
You were teaching me to know

I know what it’s like to believe, to believe
When nothing else looks real
I know what it’s like not to feel alone
When I hear You speak
I know how good it feels
