I Knew You Better Before
When we didn't need words
Before you wore my t-shirt
When you didn't need to call in to check in on me
When you didn't need commitment
Closer when we had the distance
When we only had the weekends, I'd miss you all week
Before we were lovers
Before we were closer
Before you had keys to my door
I knew you better before
When we didn't have the pictures
Before the pillows and the whispers
When we didn't have to tell all our friends who we were
When we didn't need the whiskey
Before the memories and the history
When we didn't need to question the way that we were
Before we were lovers
Before we were closer
Before you had keys to my door
I knew you better before
Wonder if we could reverse this
Consequences of the first kiss
Back when you were just a question that moved in to me
Back before I knew the answer
Knowing what was coming after
Wish that you were still the dancer that danced just for me
Before we were lovers
Before we were closer
Before you had keys to my door
I knew you better before
When we didn't need words
Before you wore my t-shirt
When you didn't need to call in to check in on me
When you didn't need commitment
Closer when we had the distance
When we only had the weekends, I'd miss you all week
Before you wore my t-shirt
When you didn't need to call in to check in on me
When you didn't need commitment
Closer when we had the distance
When we only had the weekends, I'd miss you all week
Before we were lovers
Before we were closer
Before you had keys to my door
I knew you better before
When we didn't have the pictures
Before the pillows and the whispers
When we didn't have to tell all our friends who we were
When we didn't need the whiskey
Before the memories and the history
When we didn't need to question the way that we were
Before we were lovers
Before we were closer
Before you had keys to my door
I knew you better before
Wonder if we could reverse this
Consequences of the first kiss
Back when you were just a question that moved in to me
Back before I knew the answer
Knowing what was coming after
Wish that you were still the dancer that danced just for me
Before we were lovers
Before we were closer
Before you had keys to my door
I knew you better before
When we didn't need words
Before you wore my t-shirt
When you didn't need to call in to check in on me
When you didn't need commitment
Closer when we had the distance
When we only had the weekends, I'd miss you all week
