lyrics

Love Knows My Name

Though I walk as if in mourning
For the girl I loved in vain
I know there’ll be a brand new morning
For love knows my name, for love knows my name.

Though it seems my heart is aching
For the love my lover’s slain
I know this heart is not for breaking
For love knows my name, for love knows my name.

Though it feels my hope has ended
And my skies are constant rain
I know that love must be defended
For love knows my name, for love knows my name.

Chorus
For as oceans flow & rivers run
I know that tomorrow I’ll find the sun
For as oceans flow & rivers run
I know that tomorrow new love will come.

Though I know I feel forsaken
And my soul is touched by pain
I know this heart will not be shaken
For love knows my name, for love knows my name.

Though each day’s a gloomy Sunday
A broken land where hurt remains
I will find my joyful Monday
For love knows my name, for love knows my name.

Chorus

(Instrumental)

Chorus

Though I know I walk forgotten
By the girl who became my bane
I won’t believe this heart’s ill gotten
For love knows my name, for love knows my name
For love knows my name.
