You Should Know

1. You should know that it was just a notion as I passed you by
Worn out from the heat or just plain crazy
Or maybe it was all the drink I’d had that night
My memory is still a little hazy.
Maybe it was all the talk and the way our friends were wasted
Pulled you out for a walk just to try and get away.

Chorus:
You should know I’ve loved no better
(Than) in these summer nights with you
You have taken all that matters
Turned it into something new. And it’s you.

2. You should know I thought I would be happy living all alone
Never wanted anyone to catch me
So stupid from the loneliness I brought you home
Now it’s only you that makes me happy.
Maybe something in your eyes turned this dreadful summer
Into a kind of paradise a season we can call our own.

Chorus

3. You should know that there have been some others, sent them all away
Never wanted this sort of thing to happen
But now it seems it did and you are here to stay
You should know I’ve changed a lot since back then
Maybe it’s the sounds around that only your voice matters
Maybe time to settle down and give this lonely heart a home.

Chorus

You should know I’ve never loved any better, never loved this way.
