I knew youThrough the daze of the blades of the grass in summerParachutesFor the free fall of being youngerI memorizedThe sound of your bare footstepsRunning wild, it's been a long timeLife has ways of leaving those days behindBut seeing you tonight
I remembered I loved youCame back when it mattered, I saw youStanding there in the light of the windowWearing that same smileMan, it's been a whileBut I knew it, I knew youI knew it, I knew you
I knew youAll your blues like a mood ring changing colorsYou did tooThere were times we could fight like brothersI watched you driveAround the bend forWhat I thought would be the last time I saw my friendBut love has ways of bringing things back to lifeAll you said was, "Hi"
And I remembered I loved youCame back when it mattered, I saw youStanding there in the light of the windowWearing that same smileMan, it's been a whileBut I knew it, I knew you
I knewI knew (I knew it, I knew you)I knewI knew (I knew it, I knew you)I knew (oh)I knew (whoo)
Oh, the rivers I cried when we said goodbyeWondering if I'd made it up in my mindBut now you look me in the eye
And you told me I loved youCame back when it mattered, I saw youStanding there in the light of the windowWearing that same smileYeah, it's been a while, ohWearing that same smileMan, it's been a while (man, it's been a while)Wearing that same smileMan, it's been a whileBut I knew it, I knew you
Ooh, I knew you (I knew)I knew it, I knew youOoh, I knew you (I knew)Wearing that same smile (I knew)Ooh, I, ah (I knew)I knew it, I knew you (I knew, I knew)I knew it, I knew you (I knew)I knew it
