# Before I Knew Your Name

[Intro — Both]

Mmmmmmmh
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
I knew you, I knew you
Before I knew your name

[Verse 1 — Ayoa, Female]

There was something in the way you
Looked at me across the room
Like a song I’d heard in childhood
Like the first light breaking through

I had never seen your face before
Still nothing felt brand new
Every silence sounded familiar
Like my heart remembered you

[Pre-Chorus — Ayoa, Female]

I can’t explain it
I can’t tell you why
But the moment you came closer
I knew you by your eyes

[Chorus — Both]

Before I knew your name
(Your name)
My soul already knew you
(Knew you)

Before you touched my hand
(My hand)
My heart was moving to you
(To you)

Mmm, before I knew your name
Nothing in me felt the same
Somewhere deep inside
I knew you before I knew your name

[Post-Chorus — Both]

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
(I already knew you)
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
(Before I knew your name)

Mmmmmmmh, mmmmmmmh
My soul already knew
I knew you, I knew you
Before I knew your name

[Verse 2 — Kaelo, Male]

Mi felt it from the first hello
Though I had no words to say
Like the stars had drawn your outline
Long before you crossed my way

I had learned to trust the distance
Kept my heart behind a door
But the rhythm of your laughter
Felt like somewhere I’d been before

[Pre-Chorus — Kaelo, Male]

Can’t explain it
Don’t know how it’s true
But something in the silence
Kept calling me to you

[Chorus — Both]

Before I knew your name
(Your name)
My soul already knew you
(Knew you)

Before you touched my hand
(My hand)
My heart was moving to you
(To you)

Mmm, before I knew your name
Nothing in me felt the same
Somewhere deep inside
I knew you before I knew your name

[Post-Chorus — Both]

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
(I already knew you)
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
(Before I knew your name)

Mmmmmmmh, mmmmmmmh
My soul already knew
I knew you, I knew you
Before I knew your name

[Bridge — Both]

Maybe love is not a stranger
Maybe some hearts recognize
What the mind has never witnessed
Something older than our eyes

We don’t need to know the reason
We don’t need to ask the stars
Somewhere long before we met here
You were written in my heart

[Final Chorus — Both]

Before I knew your name
(Your name)
My soul already knew you
(Knew you)

Before you touched my hand
(My hand)
My heart was moving to you
(To you)

Mmm, before I knew your name
Nothing in me felt the same
Somewhere deep inside
I knew you before I knew your name

Before I knew your name
(Before I knew, before I knew)
My soul already knew you
(It always knew, it always knew)

Before you touched my hand
I was already moving to you
Mmm, somewhere deep inside
I knew you before I knew your name

[Outro — Both]

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
(I already knew you)
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
(Before I knew your name)

Mmmmmmmh
My soul already knew
Before I knew your name
I knew it had to be you

[outro piano]
[outro whisper]
Ben, Ben, Bennie pon di riddim
Mmmmhhhh.....
