Lyrics
I Knew You
Jenny Bienemann
I knew you the first time I saw you
I knew how your arms would feel
when you bumped into me
and by the way you smiled so all
the other pretty women would see
I knew you the next time I saw you
I knew the way your lips would taste when you leaned in to speak with me
and by the way you whispered so all
the other pretty women would see
I don’t blame you
for what went on between us two
how can you warn the desert about the damage
a little rain can do
and no amount of common sense
could tell me what I already knew
you really loved the chase no matter how much
I love you
I knew you the last time I saw you
I knew the way my life would feel when you walked away from me
and by the way you waved so all
the other pretty women would see
