Wouldnt You Like to Know by Todd Rundgren Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ignorance is bliss
And I believe it's so
I guess sometimes you have to hurt like this
If you ever hope to grow
[Chorus 1]
Rolling like a stone
Down the same old road
Why you're still alone
Wouldn't you like to know
Ever wonder where
Or why she had to go
Did she really care
Wouldn't you like to know
[Verse 2]
Life is so complex
I can't help but fall behind
It's hard to see how all of this connects
With a simple little mind
[Chorus 2]
When you close your eyes
What is that tableaux
All gone when you rise
Wouldn't you like to know
Never asking more
Going with the flow
What's behind the door
Wouldn't you like to know
[Verse 3]
Facing toward the wall
With my fingers in my ears
Don't want to know if I've been wrong at all
That I wasted all these years
[Chorus 1]
Rolling like a stone
Down the same old road
Why you're still alone
Wouldn't you like to know
Ever wonder where
Or why she had to go
Did she really care
Wouldn't you like to know
[Chorus 2]
When you close your eyes
What is that tableaux
All gone when you rise
Wouldn't you like to know
Never asking more
Going with the flow
What's behind the door
Wouldn't you like to know
Ignorance is bliss
And I believe it's so
I guess sometimes you have to hurt like this
If you ever hope to grow
[Chorus 1]
Rolling like a stone
Down the same old road
Why you're still alone
Wouldn't you like to know
Ever wonder where
Or why she had to go
Did she really care
Wouldn't you like to know
[Verse 2]
Life is so complex
I can't help but fall behind
It's hard to see how all of this connects
With a simple little mind
[Chorus 2]
When you close your eyes
What is that tableaux
All gone when you rise
Wouldn't you like to know
Never asking more
Going with the flow
What's behind the door
Wouldn't you like to know
[Verse 3]
Facing toward the wall
With my fingers in my ears
Don't want to know if I've been wrong at all
That I wasted all these years
[Chorus 1]
Rolling like a stone
Down the same old road
Why you're still alone
Wouldn't you like to know
Ever wonder where
Or why she had to go
Did she really care
Wouldn't you like to know
[Chorus 2]
When you close your eyes
What is that tableaux
All gone when you rise
Wouldn't you like to know
Never asking more
Going with the flow
What's behind the door
Wouldn't you like to know
