Grant, Amy - Better Not To Know Lyrics
We sowed our seeds
Watered with tears
Waiting for signs of growth
Took months of days
And then took years
We took our falls
Somewhere along the way
We just got lost
And we lost it all
Nothing ventured nothing gained
The risk of living is the pain
And what will be will be anyway
Oh, it's better not to know
The way it's gonna go
Goodbye more than hello
It's better not to know
Those tiny stems became these trees
With dirt and storms
And sun and air to breathe
Like you and me
And some fell down
And some grew tall
And those surviving twenty winter thaws
Have the sweetest fruit of all
But innocence and planting day
Are both long gone
So much has changed
And if we had to do it all again...
Oh, it's better not to know
The way it's gonna go
What will die and what will grow
Oh...
Oh... nothing stays the same
Life flickers like a flame
As the seasons come and go
Goodbye more than hello
It's better not to know
Is it better, better not to know
Is it better, is it better, is it better?
We sowed our seeds watered with tears...
Oh, it's better not to know...

Grant, Amy Better Not To Know Comments
This is about the mustard see parable or the parable of the olive tree. We get lost sometimes. It is better not to know the future.
My favorite of all her songs. Appreciate the moment, don't live in the past or for the future.
My favorite Amy Grant song, the lyrics are so moving and true!
I Like music , Love : ), best music ______❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤______
They love beauties, obviously. I mean, the silicon culture.
beautiful song and so happy that Vince got to sing it with her..love their voices
God bless you!
I went to see a video
On Amy Grant vevo
And I listened to a song called
"Better not to know"
It's about how bad life is
How depressing it is
But it just does not say how God
Turns it all for good
I said "Is this all there is? How bad our lives are? Something's wrong..."
+Peter Szabo Actually, this song is about her marriage to Gary Chapman and how it fell apart. Life isn't always tidy and happy and sometimes "It's better not to know" the tragedies that we will encounter in the future. We all are part of the human condition and there are no guarantees.
we know not what a day will bring forth, so the Bible states.....I agree, wouldn't want to know ahead of time of the pain that lay ahead......losing those we love, a divorce was coming, a simple outpatient procedure would result in 54 day hospitalization....the Lord knows and that's enough for me, to trust Him, regardless...
Better not to know of the last life of the past once you've moved on.
Amo de mais!!!
maravilhosa!

Beautiful song
Poignant. Brought me to tears.
i love this song. every words means a lot
Obrigado Amy por todas as músicas. Deus te abençoe!!!
I'm so sorry, Jennifer. I know what it's like to have depression with young children. And I hope and pray for healing for your whole family, especially the father of your children. I can't imagine how hard this is for you and how powerless you feel to protect your children! Love always protects, and God loves them. That's all I know. Lord have mercy. :-(
Is it better not to know . I think it depends on what the question is, Or who it is that's asking . Sometimes we say things not knowing how far that truth will go or how far it will take us ! A line to say hello. Gods Love
this song is so beautiful and so true
I'm a longtime Any Grant Fan & Christian singer/songwriter in a huge crises. My 2 young daughters were taken from me by the DCFS 10 months ago due to postpartum depression & bipolar disorder... (I never abused them).They are with their schizophrenic father who continues to abuse them and neglect them. They need HELP!!! The DCFS REFUSES to remove them and bring them back home to me. Please *PRAY* for us, that God will grant us a *MIRACLE* & bring them home to me!
Did you see the comment to you above by
Eclectifying 6 years ago? Maybe this will help - JENNIFER - an acronym for Joy Encouraging Neglected Negatives Into Friendlier Entertaining Rivalries. Did you get your daughters back?
Yay!!!!!
Beautiful song..
this song is so true, it is better not to know. just live life!
Awesome
love the new album
