You Knew Me When
Leona Lewis
Verse 1: Take a look look into my eyes You’ll see someone you don’t recognize You’ll see someone who looks like me But I’m not the me I used to be Found I could fall but I could get up And after all I could hold my head up I made it out I made it through I’m someone now I’m someone new But you could say you knew me then You could say you knew me when You knew me when I was on the edge And my confidence was shattered You knew me when I didn’t know my worth Didn’t know how much I mattered You knew me when you thought you could keep me down no You knew me when you knew me then But you don’t know me now Verse 2: You look surprised to see I’ve changed But I’ve turned the key and I’ve turned the page Stepped out the dark into the sun To a whole new me that I’ve become I was scared had so much fear then Now I’m free now I’m fearless Took too much for too long I’m someone now I’m someone strong And you could say you knew me then You could say you knew me when You knew me when I was on the edge And my confidence was shattered You knew me when I didn’t know my worth Didn’t know how much I mattered You knew me when you thought you could keep me down no You knew me when you knew me then But you don’t know me now Bridge: I’m a little wiser reaching higher It’s a battle but I’m a fighter This time there’ll be no surrender no And you could say you knew me then You could say you knew me when You knew me when I was on the edge And my confidence was shattered You knew me when I didn’t know my worth Didn’t know how much I mattered You knew me when you thought you could keep me down no You knew me when You knew me when you knew me then But you don’t know me now You knew me when you knew me then But you don’t know me now
