Ub40 - I Knew You Lyrics
I knew you before you knewWho you wanted to beNow I see the new youShe's a perfect stranger to meLoves unkind, for I findIf only saw, the best of youBut my mind, not so blindShowed my heart the rest of youScheming lies and alibisThat butter wouldn't melt disguiseWith happy ever after eyesThat made a fool of meI knew you before you knewWho you wanted to beNow I see the new youShe's a perfect stranger to meShe's a perfect stranger to meLove is cruel It makes a foolOf one who thought we had it allAll bridges burned, the lesson learnedYou never really loved at allNow you're gone, I'm on my ownDon't come around, don't even phonePlease leave a happy man aloneAnd we can both be freeI knew you before you knewWho you wanted to beNow I see the new youShe's a perfect stranger to meShe's a perfect stranger to me
