The Man I Know Lyrics by Ciara Renée

In The Light: A Faustian Tale (Highlights From the World Premiere Studio Cast Recording)

2021

[ANA]
A GIRL MUST FALL IN LINE
A GIRL MUST KNOW HER PLACE
A GIRL MUST NEVER SHINE
ONLY SHOW HER PRETTY FACE
BUT A BOY GAVE ME A CHANCE
WHEN WE MET SO LONG AGO
AND THE BOY FOR ME WOULD COME TO BE THE MAN I KNOW
THE EARLY YEARS WERE TOUGH
AND THE NIGHTS WOULD TAKE A TOLL
THOUGH WE NEVER HAD ENOUGH
WE BOTH SHARED A COMMON GOAL
WE BUILT A BURNING FLAME
BUT IT'S FADED TO A GLOW
YET IT RADIATES WITH MEMORIES OF THE MAN I KNOW
DO YOU REMEMBER ME AND ALL WE SHARED?
WERE WE A FANTASY
AND IS THIS PAIN I FEEL A LIE OR REAL?
I MISS THE LIFE WE LED
I MISS THE LOVE I KNEW
A PART OF ME IS DEAD
AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO
I FALL ASLEEP AT NIGHT
SEEING LIFE FROM LONG AGO
HOPING WITH THE DAWN, I'LL WAKE TO FIND THE MAN I KNOW
I GAVE YOU LIGHT TO SEE
YOU TOOK IT ALL
YOU SAID YOU'D FIGHT FOR ME
BUT NOW YOU TURN YOUR FACE FROM MY EMBRACE
HOW I HANDED YOU MY HEART
HOW I TRUSTED IN YOUR NAME
BUT YOU RIPPED OUR LOVE APART
WHERE YOU TRAMPLED ON OUR FLAME
WHERE'S THE MAN WHO WANTS THE LIGHT
THAT WE LOST SO LONG AGO?
I REMEMBER HIM AND NEED TO SEE THE MAN I KNOW
ARE YOU STILL THE MAN I KNOW?
HAVE I LOST THE MAN I KNOW?
