Heather Headley - How I Know You lyrics

[MEREB] 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 you are his daughter, you probably can tell How I know you Yes, I know you [AIDA] 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 [MEREB] I never have abandoned, and nor I think could you That spark of hope for freedom no terror can subdue [AIDA] My only hope is silence, you've never seen my face [MEREB] No, you remain a princess in any time or place [AIDA] You don't know me [MEREB] Yes, I know you [AIDA] You don't know me [MEREB] How I know you How I know you
