I Knew You Well Lyrics - Tomlinson Michael

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
