Howard Jones You Knew Us So Well
Did we fail to see you crumble
Did we watch you fade to black
Jaw hanging brain aching no one can handle
Did we forget?
To understand
Did you have it planned?
We all thought that we knew you so well
Hardly bare to think what you went through
As your feet fell through the air
Hanging in a void of hopeless darkness
Way beyond despair
But you made us doubt
We would've heard your cry
Of desolation
We went there as well
So much love to give and take
Many dreams and plans to make
Can't believe it, we knew you so well
Rippling through a generation
Aftershocks for years to come
The angry final step is taken
Never to be undone
On the other side
Was a wave to ride
Through the storm cloud
To bring you to shore
So much love to give and take
Many dreams and plans to make
Can't believe it, we knew you so well
I'd like to tell you that everything changes
In given time you'll smile again
There was a cue of people to lean on
To shoulder the pain
Your live and death, we never will forget
Always know we'll see you again
So much love to give and take
Must go on to celebrate
What you gave us
You knew us so well
