Woorden: Melissa Etheridge. The Awakening. I've Loved You Before.

When I think of how you know me
No doubts, no thinking twice
When your smile can be so soothing
A familiar paradise

When there's no one else
That makes me whole
I have never needing more, I get this feeling
That I've loved you before

Were we lovers in an army
Marching all for Rome?
Side by side in battle
Did we bravely leave our home?

Did I hold you in my arms
As you were taking your last breath?
Did I shout to all the Gods
That I would love you beyond death?

[Incomprehensible] , I swear I've loved you before

Did we hide in the dark ages
From a vengeful God above?
Were our names too unfamiliar
To ever speak of love?

Did I cling to every moment with you
In every parting glance?
An accidental touch
Did we ever take the chance?

[Incomprehensible], I know I've loved you before

Have I wandered through the desert?
Have I looked and learned all the stars?
Have I rode the days and nights
On rails to get back where you are?
And every time I foundered
It's your eyes I know for sure

When I think of how you know me
No doubts, no thinking twice
When your smile can be so soothing
A familiar paradise

When there's no one else
That makes me whole
I never wanting more, I get this feeling
I know, I've loved you before

I know, I've loved you before
I've loved you before
