Up

I knew

written to “Fairytale” on Enya’s album the celts

 

I knew that if I tried, things really could come true

I knew that if I really tried, things really would come true

I knew that if I cared, I’d find someone else like me

I knew that if I cared enough, I’d find the one that was meant to be

I knew when that time came, I’d know right from the start

I knew when that time finally came there’d be two hearts, that would never part

 

before you give your love, you must seek it in your heart

for where it all begins is where you need to start

with a kiss and a smile, we transcend miles and miles

we can laugh, we can play; we can be we for the rest of our days

now I know it’s true, that I could spend my life with you

and if you feel this way I’ll love you more and more each day

 

before you give your love, you must seek it in your heart

for where it all begins is where you need to start

with a kiss and a smile, we transcend miles and miles

we can laugh, we can play; we can be we for the rest of our days

now I know it’s true, that I could spend my life with you

and if you feel this way I’ll love you more and more each day
