I've Loved You Before

Melissa Etheridge

I think of how you know me, 
no doubts no thinking twice.
When your smile can be so soothing, 
a familiar paradise.
When there's no one else that makes me whole.
I have never needing more
I get this feeling I've loved you before

We were lovers in an army, 
marching all for Rome.
side by side in battle, 
did we bravely leave our home?
Did I hold you in my arms, 
as you were taking your last breath?
Did shout to all the gods, 
that I would love you beyond death?
I swear I've loved you before.

Did we hide in the dark ages, 
from a vengeful god above?
Were our names too unfamiliar, 
to ever speak of love?
Did I cling to every moment with you, 
in every parting glance?
An accidental touch, 
did we ever take the chance?
I know I've loved you before.

Have I wandered through the desert? 
Have I looked and learned all the stars?
Have I rode the days and nights on rails, 
to get back where you are?
And every time I foundered, 
it's your eyes I know for sure.

When I think of how you know me, 
no doubts no thinking twice.
When your smile can be so soothing,
a familiar paradise.
When there's no one else that makes me whole.
I never wanting more.
I get this feeling.
I know I've loved you before.

I know I've loved you before
I've loved you before
