Lyrics

Should?ve Known Words and Music by James Horning Seeing you now Makes me think of when I first remember seeing you and how I felt just then Something different in your eyes than what I?d seen before Wondrous in your smile that left me wanting More than I had ever hoped I could have chorus And I should?ve known you?d seize my heart And fill me with this love I should?ve known, I should?ve known Seeing it still, seeing it more That look within your eyes A window to the soul I love Bound by eternal ties So take my hand and see It was written long ago He?s known of us from ages past We?re just the last to know chorus And I should?ve known you?d seize my heart And fill me with this love I should?ve known, I should?ve known That just one look can?t quench what?s from above I should have known Seeing you now Makes me think of when I first remember seeing you Well, I feel that way again
