Gaelic Storm - I Thought I Knew You lyrics

rate me

Surfin' though the pages of my mind,

I find picture of you,

You were young and I was too,

"I do" you said, and I beleived you

Singing songs and dancing in the street,

the beat I don't remeber,

A barking dog, a velvet chain,

the rain was cold but you were colder

I thought I knew you

I thought I knew you

I thought I knew what you're about

I doubt If I ever knew you

We took the ferry late at night,

first light discovered us together

we agreed that paradise was nice,

but couldn't last forever

Bright eyed and busy tailed

I failed to see what everyone else saw,

moss growing on the roof

the truth was getting hard to swallow

Chorus

For every left there is a right, for every day there is a night,

a moon, a sun, a smoking gun, a tear, an eye, hello, goodbye

For every hand there is a glove, for every hate there is a love

Heaven, earth, a death, a birth, a hat, a head, a hunger....

Chorus

Tomorrow never comes they say,

but hey you know I don't beleive them

I close my eyes and drift away

today has gone, I'm still standing

I'm still standing

I'm still standing, oh!
