Before I Ever Knew Your Name
Before I ever knew your name
I was underneath your sky
feeling the very same rain
I never, I never know why
Why I knew you before I ever knew your name
came right to you trying to get my life to change,
and I keep coming back again
come the morning, and I'm riding the morning train
back to the place I dreamed your face before I knew your name
Your name is like a water sound
water can't be denied
when it starts coming down
I never, I never know why
Why I knew you before I ever knew your name
came right to you trying to get my life to change,
and I keep coming back again
come the morning, and I'm riding the morning train
back to the place I dreamed your face before I knew your name
and that rumble feel the rumble low
and you hear train clang, clang, clang
carry you back from where you came
just you and 100 others calling and rolling 'long the same
the attendants just won't wait
nobody holds the train
through the mountains rolling down the freight
over the American River to the San Francisco Bay
like the thoughts of a child, rolling
rumble of two hearts...
