[Verse 1]
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 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 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)
[Post-Chorus]
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)
[Post-Chorus]
I knew it, I knew you
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 (Ooh, I knew you, I knew)
I knew it
