Lyrics:I Knew It I Knew You - Taylor Swift
(Verse1)
I knew you through the daze of the blades
of the grass in summer
Parachutes for the free fall of being younger
I memorized the sound of your bare footsteps
Running wild, it's been a long time
Life has ways of leaving those days behind
But seeing you tonight
(Chorus)
I remembered I oved you
Came back when it mattered, I saw you
Standing there in the light of the window
wearing that same smile
Man, it's been a while
But I knew it, I knew you
I knew it, I knew you
(Verse 2)
I knеw you, all your blues like a mood ring changing colors
You did too, therе were times we could fight like brothers
I watched you drive around the bend for
What I thought would be the last time I saw my friend
But love has ways of bringing things back to life
All you said was, "Hi"
(Chorus)
And I remembered I loved you
Came back when it mattered, I saw you
Standing there in the light of the window
wearing that same smile
Man, it's been a while
But I knew it, I knew you (I knew, I knew)
I knew it, I knew you (I knew, I knew)
I knew it, I knew you (I knew, I knew)
(Bridge)
Oh.
The rivers I cried when we said goodbye
Wondering if I'd made it up in my mind
But now you look me in the eye
(Chorus)
And you told me I loved you
Came back when it mattered, I saw you
Standing there in the light of the window
wearing that same smile
Yeah, it's been a while, oh-oh
Wearing that same smile
Man, it's been a while (Man, it's been a while)
Wearing that same smile
Man, it's been a while
But I knew it, I knew you
(Ooh, I knew you, I knew)
(Outro)
I knew it, I knew you
(Ooh, I knew you, I knew)
Wearing that same smile
(Ooh, I knew you, I knew)
I knew it, I knew you
(Ooh, I knew you, I knew)
I knew it, I knew you
I knew it
