"I Know You" lyrics

"I Know You"

I know you
I saw you in my dreams last night
I asked you
If you'd like to dance and then you said you might

I spotted you from across the room
Watched you for a while
I was taken by your smile
And I reached for your hand
To help you up from your seat

When you stand
I find that you're nearly tall as me
I try to pull you toward the dance floor
But you pull back on me
You say, "First let's get a drink,"
And so I follow you
Across the room into a bar

In your eyes
All the glory of an Appalachian sunrise
A natural light
Something you just don't see all the time
I order a beer and a sidecar
I look at you
You say, "Make it two."
We talk a while
About a little bit of everything
And as time goes by

I feel you warming up to me

I call out for another round
But you take my hand
You say, "How 'bout that dance?"
Then you lead
Me out onto the dance floor

We danced all night
Stopping now and then for a drink
They turned out the lights
It's only then that we leave

Then we go to say goodbye
I wake up when we kiss
With a sweet taste on my lips
And I say
I know you
I saw you in my dreams last night
