Tift Merritt - I Know Him Too

I know you think that I'm just a stranger,
Just a drinker he's seen downtown.
Someone he'd wave to on his way to meet you.
But I know him too.

Better than a how you been.
Oh, better than I wish I did.
When you dance where I can see.
I know you think you know him better,
Wait a little longer, I know him too.

I guess no one told you nobody can hold him.
I guess his whispers still sound true.
And his secrets are still the same
As the ones I knew.

Better than a how you been.
Oh, better than I wish I did.
When you dance where I can see.
I know you think you know him better,
Wait a little longer, I know him too.

Tonight you love him cause no one can tell him.
Tonight, no one can tell you.
The way your eyes shine, soon they'll be like mine.
Crying cause I know him too.

I know you think you know him better,
Wait a little longer, I know him too.
