I Thought I Knew Lyrics by Alela Diane

About Farewell

2013

[Verse 1]
It was the last day of the year
It was coming down in sheets
I was sitting on the street
Soaked through from the sleet, I'd had too much to drink
[Chorus]
I called you up
And drew you in
I thought I knew
But I was wrong
[Verse 2]
You came to my town
I showed you around
But everywhere we went reminded me of him
I'd been lying to myself again
[Chorus]
I called you up
And drew you in
I thought I knew
But I was wrong
[Verse 3]
And I took to the sky
With that knowing sinking feeling
I'd only just arrived
But I foresaw the end
[Verse 4]
So I lay on the couch
Helpless to my blunder
You turned off the lights upon me
And went upstairs alone
You knew that I was gone
You knew I was gone
