I Thought I Knew You

Surfin' though the pages of my mind,

I findpicture of you,

You were young and i was too,

"i do" you said, and i beleived you

Singing songs and dancing in the street,

The beat i don't remeber,

A barking dog, a velvet chain,

The rain was cold but you were colder

I thought i knew you

I thought i knew you

I thought i knew what you're about

I doubt if i ever knew you

We took the ferry late at night,

First light discovered us together

We agreed that paradise was nice,

But couldn't last forever

Bright eyed and busy tailed

I failed to see what everyone else saw,

Moss growing on the roof

The truth was getting hard to swallow

Chorus

For every left there is a right, for every day there is a night,

A moon, a sun, a smoking gun, a tear, an eye, hello, goodbye

For every hand there is a glove, for every hate there is a love

Heaven, earth, a death, a birth, a hat, ahead, a hunger....

Chorus

Tomorrow never comes they say,

But hey you know i don't beleive them

I close my eyes and drift away

Today has gone, i'm still standing

I'm still standing

I'm still standing, oh!
