i wish i knew you- now i’m going away
- cause if i knew you
- you know i’d know what to say
- but i’m dumb
- i have no words
- except to say
- except to say
-
- i wish i knew you
- in a place i could stay
- and trickle slowly into you
- trickle slowly into you
- til i dripped from every pore
-
- when you walked away from the circle
- trailed a hand through the leaves of the trees
- searched the sky
- searched the sky
- with lazy eyes
- how could you have known
- how could you have known
-
- i wish i knew you
- now it’s getting late
- cause if I knew you
- i might not hesitate
- to say the words that hang inside
- that lie upon my tongue
-
- i wish i knew you
- when you stood there alone
- in a pool of darkness
- with lights all around
- waiting
- waiting for that sound
-
- when you walked away from the circle
- trailed a hand through the leaves of the trees
- searched the sky
- searched the sky
- with lazy eyes
- how could you have known
- how could you have known
-
- there’s more to this than tired lines
- there’s more to this than a singer’s lies
- there’s more than words that hypnotise
- believe me
-
- there’s more to you than meets the eyes
- there’s more to you than your neon signs
- that moves behind your thin disguise
- believe me
- believe me
-
- i wish i knew you
- now i’m going away
- cause if i knew you
- you know i’d know what to say
- but i’m dumb
- i have no words
- except to say
- except to say
