                                       The You I Knew Before


                                       I knew you before
                                       when my spirit
                                       was open and pure,
                                       before the unremembering.

                                       I knew your face,
                                       I knew your ways,
                                       I knew the woodsmoke,
                                       I knew your name.

                                       I felt your love
                                       and knew you were the one
                                       who would always hold my heart.
                                       I got lost along the way.

                                       I've wandered aimlessly
                                       for all these lonely years
                                       seeking the love we knew before.
                                       Now, I've found you.

                                       Life without you
                                       would never be complete.
                                       I would always be longing
                                       for the you I knew before.
