Elton John - How I Know You lyrics

Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by tim rice<br>Elton's solo version is unreleased<br><br>I grew up in your hometown, at least began to grow<br>I hadn't got to my first shave before the body blow<br>Egyptians in the courtyard, my family in chains<br>You witnessed our abduction which possibly explains<br><br>How I know you<br>How I know you<br><br>Before that fateful morning my family enjoyed<br>A privileged existence, for my father was employed<br>As advisor to the king, no less, which surely rings a bell<br>For as you are his daughter, you probably can tell<br><br>How I know you<br>How I know you<br><br>Enough of reminiscence, and such happy memories<br>The reason why I know you well is really none of these<br>It's just you reek of royalty, you ooze uncommon grace<br>I'd know you were a princess, in any time and place<br><br>Yes I know you<br>How I know you<br>Yes I know you<br>How I know you
