[Intro — Female, close] I know you. I don't know how. But I know you. [Male — low] I've felt you before you came close. [Female] Then where have we met? [Male] Somewhere I never learned to look. [Verse 1 — Female] You wait where I used to run You move where I used to hide You don't ask me to move any faster You just stay by my side [Male] You hear what I buried in noise You feel what I couldn't let in And somehow when I'm here with you I hear my own voice again [Pre-Chorus — Alternating] [Female] Why do you feel so familiar? [Male] Why do I know your rhythm? [Female] I've never held you before [Male] Still— [Both] I know you. [Chorus — Both] I know you from within From a place I couldn't name I know the way you move toward me I know the way you stay You don't complete me You meet me Something in me already knows I know you from within [Verse 2 — Male] I kept moving without listening You kept breathing underneath [Female] I was never asking you to find me Only to let me speak [Male] Then I stopped asking you to follow [Female] And I stopped trying to hide [Both] Something changed when we stopped running from the space we had inside [Chorus — Both] I know you from within From a place I couldn't name I know the way you move toward me I know the way you stay You don't complete me You meet me Something in me already knows I know you from within [Bridge — sparse, revelation] [Female] I thought you were coming toward me [Male] I thought I was searching for you [Female] But there was no distance between us [Male] Only a distance inside [Pause] [Female] You didn't find me. [Male] No. I remembered you. [Music Opens] [Female] And now I see you everywhere [Male] In another pair of eyes [Female] In the way the world can touch me [Male] Without asking me to hide [Both] I recognize you. [Final Chorus — Both, fuller] I know you from within I know the freedom in your touch I know the space that lets me breathe and still lets you stay with me You don't complete me You meet me And now I understand I recognize you in the world because I knew you from within [Outro — almost whispered] [Female] I know you. [Male] I know. [Female] From where? [Pause] [Both] Within.
