I Knew You W hen

Words and Music by
Donny Kees 35 Shawna Harrington-Buckhaxt
You come home
And get lost

In the evening news,
lwish we could talk,
But somehow,

We never do
You don't even ask me
How my day has been,

It looks like one of
Those evenings, again
We sit here
Like strangers, I don't

Know you anymore
I knew you when
You needed me,

I used to make your
World go 'round,
You used to open up
Your heart

And let me in
Why can't you now,
Like you did then?

I knew you when
I used to see
Nothing but love

In your eyes,
When you look at me,
It's enough

To make me cry
Little by little,
You're slipping away,
So much is said
In the words

You don't say,
Don't you remember
When you were mine?

Woh, there was a time
I knew you when
You needed me,

I used to make your
World go 'round,
You used to open
Up your heart

And let me in,
Why can't you now,
Like you did then?

I knew you when
I knew you when
You needed me,

I used to make your
World go 'round,
You used to open
Up your heart

And let me in,
Why can't you now,
Like you did then?

I knew you when
Oh, why can't you now,
Like you did then?

I knew you when
