I KNEW YOU
STEPPIN’ ON THE LAST TRAIN
MARKED ME LIKE A BLOODSTAIN I-I-I-I
I KNEW YOU
TRIED TO CHANGE THE ENDING
PETER LOSING WENDY I-I-I-I
I KNEW YOOOU LEAVING LIKE A FATHER!!!
RUNNING LIKE WATER I-I-
AND WHEN YOU ARE YOUNG THEY ASSUME YOU KNOW NOTHING—
—BUT I KNEW YOU’D LINGER LIKE A TATTOO KISS
I KNEW YOU’D HAUNT ALL OoF MY WHAT-IFs
THE SMELL OF SMOKE WOULD HANG AROUND THIS LONG...
CAUSE I KNEW EVERYTHING WHEN I WAS YOUNG!!!
I KNEW I’D CURSE YOU FOR THE LONGEST TIME
CHASING SHADOWS IN THE GROCERY LINE
I KNEW YOU’D MISS ME ONCE THE THRILL EXPIRED
AND YOU’D BE STANDIN’ IN MY FRONT PORCH LIGHT
AND I KNEW YOU’D COME BACK TO MEEEEE
YOU’D COME BACK TO MEEEE
AND YOU’D COme back to meee....
And you’d come back......
