Fountains of Wayne
Know You Well
This morning
Under a waking glow
The sun filled our room
Like december snow
Like morning
Through an old window
There's a place in your head
I will always know
To the same world born
Two of a kind
If it's on your mind
It'll be on mine
Cos'
I know you well
Like the soil on the ground
Grass grow in the shadow of a bell
And if the bell will never toll
You and me grow old
I hope we will live to tell
How you know
I know
You knew
I know you well
Down under
Beneath the softened skin
Where the words we whisper sink in
It's no wonder
The way the words still ring
Sure as sin
It's not a secret thing
To the same world born
Two of a kind
If it's on your mind
It'll be on mine
Cos'
I know you well
Like the soil on the ground
The grass grow in the shadow of a bell
And if the bell will never toll
You and me grow old
I hope we will live to tell
How you know
I know
You knew
I know knew
New York, 1991
Here in the same room
For so long
Out of the cold November
Still as a passport picture
Still as a passport picture
Still as a passport picture
Still as a passport picture
Well
To the same world born
Two of a kind
It's on your mind
It'll be on mine
Cos'
I know you well
Like the soil on the ground
The grass grow in the shadow of a bell
And if the bell will never toll
You and me grow old
I hope we will live to tell
How you know
I know
You knew
I know you well
