Intro. She looked me over And I guess she thought I was all right All right in a sort of a limited way For an off-night She said don’t I know you From the cinematographer’s party? I said who am I To blow against the wind? I know what I know I’ll sing what I said We come and we go That’s a thing that I keep In the back of my head I know what I know I’ll sing what I said We come and we go That’s a thing that I keep In the back of my head She said there’s something about you That really reminds me of money She was the kind of a girl Who could say things that Weren’t that funny I said what does that mean I really remind you of money? She said who am I To blow against the wind? I know what I know I’ll sing what I said We come and we go That’s a thing that I keep In the back of my head I know what I know I’ll sing what I said We come and we go That’s a thing that I keep In the back of my head She moved so easily All I could think of was sunlight I said aren’t you the woman Who was recently given a Fulbright? She said don’t I know you From the cinomatagrapher’s party I said who am I To blow against the wind? I know what I know I’ll sing what I said We come and we go That’s a thing that I keep In the back of my head I know what I know I’ll sing what I said We come and we go That’s a thing that I keep In the back of my head Repeat and fade I know what I know I know what I know

La chanson évoque une rencontre éphémère entre deux personnes qui se reconnaissent à une soirée, créant un jeu de regard et de paroles. Le protagoniste semble naviguer entre la superficialité des interactions et une profonde réflexion sur sa propre identité. Il reconnaît l'impermanence des relations humaines, rappelant que nous venons et partons sans cesse dans la vie, tout en gardant certaines vérités en tête. Le contexte de cette rencontre se déroule dans un cadre mondain, où les protagonistes échangent des plaisanteries sur des sujets tels que la célébrité et l'argent. Cela souligne un contraste entre l'importance attribuée aux apparences et la profondeur des pensées que chacun cache en lui.
