Lyrics
I know you!
I walked with you (C7)once up (F#dim7)on a (Gm)dream.
(C)I (Abdim)know (Gm)you!
The (C7)gleam in your (F)eyes is (D7)so fa (Gm)mil iar a (C7)gleam.
Yet, I (F)know it’s true that vi sions are (Gm)sel dom (D7)all they (Gm)seem,
(G#dim)but if (F)I know (G#dim)you, I (Gm)know what you’ll (C7)do: you’ll (F)love me at (Adim)once the (D7)way you did (Gm)once up (C7sus)on (C7)a (F)dream.
