# *I didn't know a tree would grow From just a little seed I didn't know that it would grow In spite of all the weeds And I didn't know a little snow Could ***** that raging flame I didn't know that it would blow To leave a lasting stain I didn't know the fire's glow Would chill me to the bone I didn't know it's heady glow Would turn my heart to stone Just...call me slow, but I didn't know The wiles, the ways of man And so it goes, I didn't know What my heart can't understand…* #

I Didn’t Know
