When we were as strangers it was so long ago
I liked you but I lacked the courage to tell you so
Wanted you by my side but never below me
It doesn't seem so bad now that you know me

The situation was just right for us to be friends
And gradually upon your love I came to depend
I wasted time afraid someday you'd outgrow me
It doesn't seem so bad now that you know me
Now that you know me

You gave your love and gave a compliment to my soul
The two of us became a part of a greater whole
You weren't concerned about the heartaches you've show me
It doesn't seem so bad now that you know me

We comforted and gave each other security
Protect you from the world and all its insanity
When waves of madness threatened to undertow me
It doesn't seem so bad now that you know me

When we were as strangers it was so long ago
I liked you but I lacked the courage to tell you so
Wanted you by my side but never below me
It doesn't seem so bad now that you know me

It doesn't seem so bad now that you know me
