I Knew You
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.
I wore a watch today it didn't tell me the time
I saw your face today I knew you'd see through mine
Does it help a lot? to see I'm on the spot never understood
But I knew you yea I knew you
But I knew you yea I knew you
I heard your voice today turn into what is best
I felt your soft caress turn into something less
Don't make me sound alive don't make me sound a - hurt
Don't make me, make - believe
'cause I knew you yea I knew you
Yes I knew you yea I knew you
It doesn't make me lie doesn't make you wise
Do not analyse 'cos I'd always cry
Does it help a lot just to see you through 'cos, I'll never know
But I knew you yea I knew you
But I knew you yea I knew you
La la la la la la ah la la la la la la ah
Nobody would know your name nobody would know your name
Is anybody know his name ...I knew you
