You Knew Lyrics

I said that I'd protect you

But then you seemed to slip away

You know I cannot sleep inside

When you're not here

After all this time I'm finding

My way through all the fear

You knew that I loved you

You knew I felt that way

I said that I'd protect you

But then you seemed to slip away

At night it's so surreal

I want to live and feel

I could if you were here

But now I can't you're nowhere near

You knew that I loved you

You knew I felt that way

I said that I'd protect you

But then you seemed to slip away

The wind blows and tides are turning

Set sail on a different course

I know the path

Like the back of my hand

But all seems so unclear

Life is here

Rearranging

Do not fear for we are changing

But one thing I'd never change is you

You knew that I loved you

You knew I felt that way

I said that I'd protect you

But then you seemed to slip away

You slipped away

You can come back to me

You don't have to slip away

You knew that I loved you

You knew I felt that way

I said that I'd protect you.

But then you seemed to slip away

You know I cannot sleep inside

When you're not here
