Thought I Knew You - Lyrics by Matthew Sweet


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
That 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
And years to figure out
That there was nothing you would take from me
And how can i describe
The way you slowly took my hope away
And all of the time
I thought i knew you
