You Know
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In all this mad excitement
Isn’t it fine to know
That love is real
And what we feel
Is all we have to show
In all this gay confusion
It’s a comfort just to see
That what you say
Is what you mean
The words are meant for me
Let people say just what they will
As time goes by, I love you still
You are my love
They think they know us, but they don’t
They never will, I know they won’t
They never will
You know, I tell you so
I know, 'cause you tell me
You know 'cause I tell you so
And I know, you tell me
Every day I see your face
It makes this world a better place for me to be
A better place for me to be
And every time I touch your hand
My troubles fade like grains of sand, and trickle away
People say just what they will
As time goes by, I love you still
You are my love
Think they know us, but they don’t
They never will, I know they won’t
They never will
And I don’t care
You know, 'cause I tell you so
I know, 'cause you tell me
You know 'cause I tell you so
I know, 'cause you tell me
You know, 'cause I tell you
I know, 'cause you tell me
You know
I know 'cause you tell me
It’s true
