You Were You Lyrics by Dog Day

Present

0

I had a piece of it
But I didn’t know I did
I should’ve known you were you

Who were you
You were you
You were you

While I didn’t think to
Guess I never thought I could
But I had a feeling, I knew
And I couldn’t tell you
But I think you thought I did
But I didn’t know you were you

Who were you
You were you
You were you

So I never knew to
But I should have thought of it
That I always got it from you
And I wanna know you too
And you’re really hard to find
But I didn’t know you were you

Turn to vapor need a paper
Turn to vapor need a paper
Turn to vapor need a paper

And I really did try
And I also didn’t care
That I didn’t know you were you
