Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida movie - How I Know You lyrics

rate me

Song by James Taylor<br /><br>

I grew up in your hometown, at least began to grow<br>

I hadn't got to my first shave before the body blow<br>

Egyptians in the courtyard, my family in chains<br>

You witnessed our abduction which possibly explains<br>

<br>

How I know you<br>

How I know you<br>

<br>

Before that fateful morning my family enjoyed<br>

A privileged existence, for my father was employed<br>

As advisor to the king, no less, which surely rings a bell<br>

For as you are his daughter, you probably can tell<br>

<br>

How I know you<br>

How I know you<br>

<br>

Enough of reminiscence, and such happy memories<br>

The reason why I know you well is really none of these<br>

It's just you reek of royalty, you ooze uncommon grace<br>

I'd know you were a princess, in any time and place<br>

<br>

Yes I know you<br>

How I know you<br>

Yes I know you<br>

How I know you<br>

<br>
