Who Knew - Daisy Chute -Window Sessions IV

It’s the first original song in the series and is called “Who Knew”.  It's a solo banjo and voice and was recorded direct to tape at the brilliant brand new analogue Studio Silo in East Iceland.Here are the lyrics: You were only looking at me looking back at you Now you’re lonely, wondering ‘bout me wondering ‘bout you too And you don’t see, how you hurt me, what you didn’t do So I won’t be, who you come see when the day is through, Who knew? And I pray you’ll find someone to worship you And I hope that you’ll love her the way that she’ll love you I do
