You cannot choose from where you come
but only if you’ll stay.
Not every harbor is a home,
but maybe for today.
The winds of change are blowing soon,
and soon they’ll blow away.
I leave the only place I’ve known,
but I don’t know the way.

I don’t know the way,
I don’t know the way.
I know just where I want to go,
and I’ll be there someday,
oh, but I don’t know the way.

I walk the dolorosa path,
I wander, passing by
the garden where the grapes of wrath
came spilling from his eyes.
I heard the seer strike a chord,
I heard St. Thomas say,
“I don’t know where you’re going, Lord,
and I don’t know the way.”

I don’t know the way,
I don’t know the way.
I know just where I want to go,
and I’ll be there someday,
oh, but I don’t know the way.

The past, a ghost, the future, blind,
point only to one end:
the now where all of human kind
look out and back again.
And all through every changing tide
and time that cannot stay,
be thou forever by my side
for I don’t know the way.

I don’t know the way,
I don’t know the way.
I know just where I want to go,
and I’ll be there someday,
oh, but I don’t know the way.
Oh, but I don’t know the way.
