Lyrics Robert Tepper – Working Understanding

We’ve got a working understanding
A parasol or a thought with an embrace
In my life there have been things that I’ve abandoned
But somehow this time I know it’s not the case

When my thoughts turn to twine
You opened the door
Like a silhouette sailing
To an unknown shore
There will be no turning back
No time to detour
Along the way
‘Cause we’ve got a working understanding

We’ve got a working understanding
?
a pawn before a king
In these times I know it’s hard to move in ?
But I can’t ignore the things that love can bring

When my thoughts turn to twine
You opened the door
Like a silhouette sailing
To an unknown shore
There will be no turning back
No time to detour
Along the way
‘Cause we’ve got a working

See the jokers, see the ones in pain
We both know that this world’s insane
Better hold onto what we’ve got
Lord knows that we’ve got a lot

And when my thoughts turn to twine
