AIDA - How I Know You (james Taylor) lyrics

I grew up in your hometown, at least began to grow I hadn't got to my first shave before the body blow Egyptians in the courtyard, my family in chains You witnessed our abduction which possibly explains How I know you How I know you Before that fateful morning my family enjoyed A privileged existence for my father was employed As advisor to the king no less which surely rings a bell For as your are his daughter, you probably can tell How I know you Yes I know you You know too much and what you say Is better left unknown And now I'm just a slave like you Our lives our not our own I never have abandoned And nor I think could you That spark of hope for freedom No terror can subdue My only hope is silence You've never seen my face No you remain a princess In any time or place You don't know me Yes, I know you You don't know me How I know you How I know you
