Jann Arden - I Know You

Jann Arden - I Know You

I have a very strange reaction to this song. The first two verses I listen to as if they are from someone elses perspective towards me and then the final verse switches to my perspective. On the wrong day this song can really get to me because it re-iterates my belief that "nobody could love someone so hard" like myself.

I know that you're sorry
I know you've been drunk all week
I know that you did not mean to spit out those profanities
I know you're a loser
I know you've had bad skin all your life
I also know you will never find a wife
Someone who could love someone so hard
And you are
And you are

I don't think you're ugly
I just think the world has made you weird
I doubt very much that you even hear anything I say to you
What's that on your shoulder?
Don't you know it's pulling you apart?
Every vein connected to your heart
Nobody could love someone so hard

(chorus)
I know you well enough to say
You need to start again
I hope you never underestimate yourself my friend
My friend

I think that you need me
Even though you tell yourself you don't
I will love you even though you won't
I will be your confidant
Won't you let me hold you?
Won't you let me kiss you on the mouth?
Oh I know you'll tell me to get out
It doesn't matter any way

(chorus)

My friend
My friend
I know you so well
I know you so well
I know you so well
