I Knew It, I Knew You
Taylor Swift · I Knew It, I Knew You
I knew you
Through the daze of the blades of the grass in summer
Parachutes for the free fall of being younger
I memorized the sound of your bare footsteps
Running wild, it's been a long time
Life has ways of leaving those days behind
But seeing you tonight
I remembered I loved you
Came back when it mattered
I saw you, standing there in the light of the window
Wearing that same smile
Man, it's been a while
But I knew it, I knew you
I knew it, I knew you
I knеw you, all your blues like a mood ring changing colors
You did too, therе were times we could fight like brothers (Oh)
I watched you drive around the bend
For what I thought would be the last time I saw my friend
But love has ways of bringing things back to life
All you said was, "Hi"
And I remembered I loved you
Came back when it mattered
I saw you, standing there in the light of the window
Wearing that same smile
Man, it's been a while
But I knew it, I knew you (I knew, I knew)
I knew it, I knew you (I knew, I knew)
I knew it, I knew you (I knew, I knew)
Oh, the rivers I cried when we said goodbye
Wondering if I'd made it up in my mind
But now you look me in the eye
And you told me I loved you
Came back when it mattered
I saw you, standing there in the light of the window
Wearing that same smile
Yeah, it's been a while (Yeah, it's been a while)
Wearing that same smile
Man, it's been a while
Wearing that same smile
Man, it's been a while
But I knew it, I knew you (Ooh, I knew you)
I knew it, I knew you
Wearing that same smile (Ooh, I knew you)
I knew it, I knew you (Ooh, I knew you)
I knew it, I knew you (Ooh, I knew you)
I knew it
Through the daze of the blades of the grass in summer
Parachutes for the free fall of being younger
I memorized the sound of your bare footsteps
Running wild, it's been a long time
Life has ways of leaving those days behind
But seeing you tonight
I remembered I loved you
Came back when it mattered
I saw you, standing there in the light of the window
Wearing that same smile
Man, it's been a while
But I knew it, I knew you
I knew it, I knew you

About I Knew It, I Knew You
"I Knew It, I Knew You" presents Taylor Swift through a specific song idea rather than a full career summary. The safest way to approach the recording is to focus on what the title and credited performance suggest: a compact musical statement shaped by voice, groove, arrangement, and tone. If the listed version includes extra mix or soundtrack wording, the core song still depends on how its hook and mood carry across that context. For listeners exploring Taylor Swift, "I Knew It, I Knew You" can be understood as a standalone track that adds another color to the artist's recorded work without needing exaggerated claims.
