I Thought We Knew Each Other Lyrics by British India

2016

[Verse 1]
A concrete park, a forest fire
We play that roll, we play that roll
I call to you, you don't reply
We play that roll, we play that roll
[Pre-Chorus]
Fifteen years of fighting in the dark
Empty hands the only thing I've got
All the times I've tried to walk away
[Chorus]
This is the way that it had to be
I looked at you and you looked at me
So far away that I can't believe I thought we knew each other
This is the way that it had to be
I looked at you and you looked at me
So far away that I can't believe I thought we knew each other
[Verse 2]
And every day I start again
We play that roll, we play that roll
And now my life is in your hands
We play that roll, we play that roll
[Pre-Chorus]
Fifteen years of fighting in the dark
Empty hands the only thing I've got
All the times I've tried to walk away
[Chorus]
This is the way that it had to be
I looked at you and you looked at me
So far away that I can't believe I thought we knew each other
This is the way that it had to be
I looked at you and you looked at me
So far away that I can't believe I thought we knew each other
[Bridge]
(I thought we knew each other
I thought we knew each other
I thought we knew each other
I thought we knew each other.)
[Chorus]
This is the way that it had to be
I looked at you and you looked at me
So far away that I can't believe I thought we knew each other
This is the way that it has to be
This is the way that it had to be
This is the way that it had to be
I thought we knew each other
