I Knew You Well Lyrics

In the glow of the street lamp you waited

All the world in your eyes

Like some old photograph worn and dated

All the details were faded

But the moon in your eyes

Did you know you'd hold a place in me?

This was so long ago

How I wonder

Just a dream I recall

From some forgotten place

We were staying

There impatiently waiting

For the winter to thaw

Chorus:

Did we learn too late about love's way

Were we blind in fear

Of our heart's embrace?

Well I hold those years inside the place

We made

in this dark

All my sisters are strangers

I've got nowhere to fall

I am tired

I thought love made a way for us

Not so riddled and dangerous

Now I don't know at all

Chorus

Oh I'm wondering how

All my boundaries were blended

I watch them come down

All the walls I defended

I can almost smell the clovered hills

In the shadows there we linger still

But I can't replace the time

I knew you well
