I KNOW YOU, I KNOW YOU, yes, I KNOW YOU
From the long ago.
When we two were men who
Vowed to face down virtue arm in arm.
 
I KNOW YOU, I KNOW YOU
'Neath the warts and scars.
The day you abandoned me
I became the man I'd be.
Turned to see if you'd followed me.
I was on the road alone.
I'd lost you.

 

Out on the highway
Loving the distant vista view--my sky's blue.
I've built a mountain
Dressed it with beautiful lovely things
Safe and a long way from you.

============================================ 
(I KNOW YOU, I KNOW YOU, )
(Yes, I KNOW YOU)
(From the long ago.)
(When we two were men who)
Made myself a mark
I loved the dark and fled the light
Bled out all the right until my rescue..

 

Now I'm a fountain
Showering days with rainbows and stars
Golden and fragrant with life.

That day you abandoned me
I became the man I'd be.
Out of darkness, living free.
No fear in me 'cause
I KNOW YOU.
