Letra de Takes One to Know One

The falling face of Ellis Island
Was she truant or behind?
What did you see back then?
Was she devine?
They were out there in the back roads
Making time to drink their tea
What did you sense back then?
Did you feel defeat?
And one day they'll find you westward
Too dazed to find the scene
Slipping in the red boat
Sipping on the finest new vaccine
Have faith in dark days
They will turn around
It takes one to know one
Since you've been around
And if you see something
In a seated plastic smile
You better say something
If you haven't seen it in a while
(All hands in the doorway
They never see you
All hands in the doorway again)
Have faith in dark days
They will turn around
It takes one to know one
Since you've been around
When it breaks down
And the rest is seen
"The fall" is all they'll say
When you come home
And your home is gone
And you're on your own again
Will you count twice
When the count is out
And you count who's on the floor
The beat goes on
Although you thought
The writing's on the door
It's just some time
That's better spent working in the mind
When you can't retreat
And you can't speak sweet
And you can't fake all the time
Will you wait and keep the weight?
Or will you break the door?
It takes one to know the way
Tell me, can you hope for more?
Have faith in dark days
They will turn around
It takes one to know one
Since you've been around
