Fountains Of Wayne - I Know You Well Lyrics






This morning under awaking glow
The sun filled our room like December snow
Like morning through an old window
There's a place in your head I will always know

To the same world born two of a kind
If it's on your mind, it'll be on mine 'cause
I know you well

Like the soil in the ground
Grass grown in the shadow of a bell
And if the bell will never toll
You and me grow old
I hope we'll live to tell
How you know I know you knew I know you well

Down under, beneath the softened skin
Where the words we whisper sink in
It's no wonder the way the words still ring
Sure as sin, it's not a secret thing

To the same world born two of a kind
If it's on your mind, it'll be on mine 'cause
I know you well

Like the soil in the ground
Grass grown in the shadow of a bell
And if the bell will never toll
You and me grow old
I hope we'll live to tell
How you know I know you knew I know New York 1991
Here in the same room for so long
Out of the cold November
Still as a passport picture
Still as a passport picture

To the same world born two of a kind
If it's on your mind, it'll be on mine 'cause

I know you well
Like the soil in the ground
Grass grown in the shadow of a bell
And if the bell will never toll
You and me grow old
I hope we'll live to tell
How you know I know you knew I know you well

    too orangey for crows.

  2. P.... R....

    another memorable Chris Collingwood song - thanks for posting

    Does anyone else ever hear that one lyric as "to the Seaworld porn, two of a kind/ if it's on your mind It'll be online" because that's what I thought that said for years and I was confused.

    C.... W....

    +Claire Woerner Every time. I knew that couldn't be it, but I couldn't figure out what else they could be saying until I looked it up.

    C.... W....

    +Claire Woerner It's 'into the same world born'

  4. T.... C....

    my dad played these guys a ton when i was little and still does. im 13 now and i cant get enough

  5. M.... ....

    I'm glad to know you like them as well.

  6. M.... ....

    Your comment makes NO sense nor it is needed.

  7. k.... p....

    Has FOW ever written a bad song?

  8. M.... ....

    Its quite good

  9. O.... W....

    @MissTrixie1 Adore them. If you like FoW listen to the Hollies if you haven't already. They are the precursor band and equally as underrated...

  10. M.... ....

    @DrBuggles1 If only! I see you're a fan of the band as well.

  11. O.... W....

    @MissTrixie1 end track? surely the first note should be enough...

  12. M.... ....

    When people ask me why do you like THAT band? I hand them this CD and by the end of the track, they know why.
