I Knew You That Way

The secret way long shadows bleed into the night

The Desperate way leaves in the fall hold colors tight

The way that thunder knows the taste of summer rain

I knew you that way

The way that cool mountain water dances down to the sea

Bound by something strong but still so wild and free

It gives into the passion of the pair that takes

I knew you that way

I held you closer than I had a right to hold

But the only thing that time can't take away

Is I knew you that way

The way that skin on skin can start a crazy fire

That no one sees but burns all night long with desire

The quiet easing love that makes a woman wanna stay

I knew you that way

I held you closer than I had a right to hold

But the only thing that time can't take away

Is I knew you that way

The holy way that love knows it should never end

The sacred way that stars got sailors home again

Like teardrops know the words to amazing grace

I knew you that way

I knew you that way

I knew you that way
