I knew you, ever since I saw you
I knew you, you were the one
I could see it so clearly
Forever held so dearly
In my mind, never coming undone
It's funny as time pulls back the curtain
Revealing the truth to things that were certain

As I look back, through rose-tinted glass
I see the cracks, in the moments that passed
The late nights you claimed were spent alone
Whispers on the phone, in a softer tone
Gifts that appeared, with no occasion near
Excuses that now, seem all too clear
It's strange how love can make you blind
To the warning signs, left behind

Now I'm dancing with your memory
Pretending what was meant to be
In the arms of another, it's so clear to me
I can't go on when you're not here with me
I knew you were the one that stole my heart
But didn't know you'd tear it all apart
Now I'm wondering how I'm gonna get through
As I try to find the new you

In the flicker of the club lights, I see
Flashes of your face, staring back at me
Laughter and wine, trying to redefine
What my heart feels, what my eyes see
But the more I search, the more I find
Your ghost in every corner of my mind
Haunting my heart and my soul
I know I should, but I can't let go

Now I'm dancing with your memory
Pretending what was meant to be (meant to be)
In the arms of another, it's so clear to me
I can't go on when you're not here with me (not here with me)
I knew you were the one that stole my heart
But didn't know, you'd tear it all apart
Now I'm wondering how I'm gonna get through
As I try to find the new you

The new you
The new you
Knew you
I never knew you
