How I Know You Songtext

How I Know You Songtext
I grew up in your home town
At least began to grow
I hadnt got to my first shave
Before the body blow
Egyptians in the court yard
My family in chains
You witnessed our abduction
Which possibly explains
How i know you
Yes i know you
Before that fateful
My family enjoyed
A priviledged existance
For my father was employed
As advisor to the king no less
Which surely rings a bell
For as you are his daughter
You probably can tell
How i know you Yes i know you
You know too much
And what you say is better left unknown
For now I′m just a slave, like you
Our lives are not our own
I never have abandoned
And nor i think could you
That spark of hope for freedom
No terror can subdue
My only hope is silence
You've never seen my face
No you remain a princess
In anytime or place
You don′t know me
Yes i know you
You don't know me
How i know you
How i know you
At least began to grow
I hadnt got to my first shave
Before the body blow
Egyptians in the court yard
My family in chains
You witnessed our abduction
Which possibly explains
How i know you
Yes i know you
Before that fateful
My family enjoyed
A priviledged existance
For my father was employed
As advisor to the king no less
Which surely rings a bell
For as you are his daughter
You probably can tell
How i know you Yes i know you
You know too much
And what you say is better left unknown
For now I′m just a slave, like you
Our lives are not our own
I never have abandoned
And nor i think could you
That spark of hope for freedom
No terror can subdue
My only hope is silence
You've never seen my face
No you remain a princess
In anytime or place
You don′t know me
Yes i know you
You don't know me
How i know you
How i know you
