Already Knew Me - JayBlacc

Stay with me Though I'm faulty Though I cannot sleep, I keep you up all night Stay with me But trade carefully 'Cause you say I need devotion all the time And you say I've lost my light, my light Don't you love who I was? Before you knew me? Your eyes see through me Your eyes see through me Don't you love who I was? Before you knew me? Your eyes see through me Your eyes see through me Stay with me Though I'm far from fantasy From the little boy's dream you love to keep in your mind Stay with me Though I've got some sorrows Always thinking 'bout tomorrow Nothing's ever quite right And you say I've lost my light, my light Don't you love who I was? Before you knew me? Your eyes see through me Your eyes see through me Don't you love who I was? Before you knew me? Your eyes see through me Your eyes see through me Strip away the layers of ourselves Till there is no one else to be And I'm not caught between reality and fantasy But I'm still asking you when to love me? Don't you love? Love who I was? Don't you love who I was? Before you knew me? Your eyes see through me Your eyes see through me Don't you love? Love who I was? Don't you love who I was? Before you knew me? Your eyes see through me Your eyes see through me

It's just after five You're still asleep There's a taxi outside So I'm leavin' this note And I hope it explains Where I once saw a fire There's not even a flame So when you awake I'll be gone And I won't ask a thing from now on I don't need this house So you keep the keys I won't need that rug I won't be down on my knees I've packed up this heart And I'm movin' cross town To the arms of someone who cares And I don't need the car You already drove me there Now I want you to know That I never thought I could let go But he came along At a time and a place When the distance from you Was a terrible space You gave me reasons to leave But he gives me all that I need I don't need this house So you keep the keys I won't need that rug I won't be down on my knees I've packed up this heart And I'm movin' cross town To the arms of someone who cares And I don't need the car You already drove me there

Like a warrior that fights and wins the battle I know the taste of victory Though I went through some nights consumed by the shadows I was crippled emotionally Somehow I made it through the heartache, yes, I did Oh, I escaped (Aha ha) I found my way out of the darkness I kept my faith (I know you did), kept my faith When the river was deep, I didn't falter When the mountain was high, I still believed When the valley was low, it didn't stop me, no no I knew you were waiting, I knew you were waiting for me Uh huh With an endless desire, I kept on searching Sure in time our eyes would meet And like a bridge that's on fire, the hurt is over One touch and you set me free No, I don't regret a single moment, no I don't (I know you don't) Looking back When I think of all those disappointments I just laugh (I know you do), I just laugh When the river was deep, I didn't falter When the mountain was high, I still believed When the valley was low, it didn't stop me, oh I knew you were waiting, hey, I knew you were waiting for me So we were drawn together through destiny, ooh boy, ooh! I know this love we share was meant to be, oh (Knew you were waiting) Ooh, yeah (Knew you were waiting) I knew you were waiting (Knew you were waiting for me) (I didn't falter) I didn't falter, no (I still believed) When the valley was low (It didn't stop me) Nothing can stop me, no (I knew you were waiting) No, I (I knew you were waiting for me) (I didn't falter) When the mountain was high (I still believed) Oh, when the valley was low (It didn't stop me) No, it didn't stop me, no (I knew you were waiting) (I knew you were waiting for me) (I didn't falter) Oh, oh yeah (I still believed) Oh, I still believed (It didn't stop me) Do you know it couldn't stop me now? No (Knew you were waiting) Someday (someday), somehow (somehow) For me (I didn't falter) When the valley was low (I still believed) I still believe (I believed, I believed) (It didn't stop me) Yeah, it couldn't stop me
