Dustin Kensrue - I Knew You Before lyrics

You were once a sweet little girl

So innocent and pure

Your eyes were open and sure

Anyone could look right in

I followed closely your gaze

You looked up towards the sky

And I watched your face drift away

Other things had caught your eye

Oh, the magazines and media supplied you with their plastic protocol

Oh, and maybe music television really is the devil after all

But all I can say is I knew you before

You were beautiful back then

Before you grew up, before you gave in

You dream of sharing your heart

Instead you share your bed

And your heart beats empty and cold

With all the tears that you have shed

You dream of baring your soul

Instead you bare more skin

And you wear dark glasses to keep

Anyone from looking in

Oh, the magazines and media supplied you with their plastic protocol

Oh, and maybe music television really is the devil after all

But all I can say is I knew you before

You were beautiful back then

Before you grew up, before you gave in

And all you want is to hear the words

"Dear baby I love you"

So you hike your skirt higher still

'Till there eyes are all on you

You drive in fast foreign cars

The color of your sin

And you tint your windows to keep

Anyone from looking in

Oh, and all I can say I knew you before

You were beautiful back then

Before you grew up, before you gave in

And all I can say is I knew you before

You were beautiful back then

You could be beautiful again
