That's All I Need to Know

David Charles Olney (born March 23, 1948 in Providence, Rhode Island) is an American folk singer/songwriter. He attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill but did not graduate, instead joining Bland Simpson's band Simpson (band) in the early 1970s. He moved to Nashville in 1973 and formed the band The X-Rays, which gained a reputation during the late 1970s and early 1980s. Since then, he has performed as a solo singer/songwriter. His songs have been covered by Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle, Johnny Cash, Linda Ronstadt, and Laurie Lewis, among others. One of his most popular songs is called "Wait Here For the Cops," in which his partner, Sergio Webb, convincingly imitates a police siren on the guitar. more »

I don't know how to explain
The way I feel when I feel the rain
Or why the seasons come and where they go
But your smile is sweet
And that's all I need to know

When the wind is from the west
I close my eyes and I take my rest
What will I do when the north winds blow
If I feel you near That's all I need to know

I don't know why the stars shine in the sky
Could it be they've come to say goodbye
Well they shine for me
And that's all I need to know

Some folks claim to understand
The whole world in a grain of sand
Who am I to say it isn't so
Is your love real
That's all I need to know
