I Know You By Heart

Yeah!

Life's full of things
That seem to leave few choices
You learn a lot just by necessity
You see that good
Can speak with many voices
With many words
You hide the faults you see

You open up
When you think there's safety
You run away
When the danger is clear
And people judge you
By what circumstances they hear
But I know you better

'Cause I know you by heart
I know you by heart
Yes, I know you by heart
I know you better
Than you know yourself

You have a memory
That light-speeds backwards
To every pain
And pleasure in your heart
No one can camouflage
Their feelings better
For your survival
You have learned the art

You flash those eyes
They see a beast inside you
You sympathize
They glimpse a shining saint
You show a side
For the effect that you calculate
But I know you better

'Cause I know you by heart
I know you by heart
Yes, I know you by heart
I know you better
Than you know yourself

I know you by heart
I know you by heart
I know you by heart
(Ooh, yeah)
I know you by heart

Know you by heart
(And I know you better)
Yes, I know you by heart
(Well, I know you, well, I know you)
I know you by heart
Yes, I know you by heart

I know you by heart
(I done know you by heart)
Yes, I know you by heart
I know you by heart
Yes, I know you by heart
(Ah, yeah...)
