• Hallways clear and classes start,
    Music, textbooks, notes, art.

    I thought I knew you.

    Hours fade away to days,
    A foolish heart hopes it stays
    But the wicked world has other ways.

    I thought I knew you.

    New faces, new smiles appear on scene
    New thoughts and ideas- abrupt, obscene
    Dust gathers in places we've kept pristine.

    Words of secret pronounced outloud
    Swallowed whole by your listening crowd,
    You've won their crown- I hope you're proud.

    I thought I knew you.

    I could cry and phone, hope and pretend
    But our harmony has reached its end
    So I say goodbye my love, my friend.

    I thought I knew you...
