lyrics

I knew her name before her face

Bly dink aan jou as ek my kan kry
Vind my hart se voete oppad na jou
sien jou saam met haar
ek sien haar wen

O die lewe is so kort
Ek gun jou jou geluk
Is jy gelukkig?
Hierdie Zombie bestaan karring maar net aan
En aan

Dit voel vir my of iemand ‘n stukkie
‘n stukkie van my uitsny

Don’t tell me somebody’s crying
For that somebody’s me
I’ve done my share of crying
Now give me a chance to live again

You say I’m making a scene and I’ve not said a word
You’re kissing me and I’ve not said a word
And what’s the use of crying when it’s over and done with
And life, life just goes on

I loose the feeling oh I stumble and fall
Over memories of you
And when I see you with her wonder if you
ever loved meat all
I knew her name before her face

And there must be a bigger wheel turning, turning
Ruling our lives
Playing with hearts that never learn
Feeling again how love can burn
And then it leaves you cold alone
I know her name before her face
