Thought I Knew You Lyrics

I thought I knew you
I was in for a surprise
I let my love flow
from my heart into your eyes
And then I found out
there was nothing i could know or guess about you
You'd go as far as you could go

And it took me years to figure out that there was nothing I could give to you
Years to figure out that there was nothing you would take from me
And how can I describe the way you slowly put my hope away and all of the time I thought I knew you.

I thought I knew you
but I wasn't even close I had my heart set on little more than a ghost
and I thought I'd show you there was no way we could lose
I thought I'd force you to realize and choose

And it took me years to figure out that there was nothing I could show to you Years to figure out that you were never really going to choose
And how can I describe the way I slowly lost my love for you when all of the time, I thought I knew you
