Know Now Then Lyrics - Up Up Up Up Up Up - Ani Difranco

It's not so much that we got closer 

It's that her face just got bigger 

And by the time it was taking up my whole view 

I figured my face had got bigger too 

So I used it to try and sway her 

Say something to her 

Make my case but my face 

Never had a chance 

All along it was the wrong song and dance 

I just stood there without even a stance 

Helpless to her advance and her retreat 

Backspace, delete 

It wasn't so much that we fell in love 

As my life just seemed to come down 

To a slow walk on a straight line 

Between her smile and her frown 

And maybe we never were as close 

As we should have been 

But I didn't know what I know now then 

Yeah, I didn't know what I know now then 

But I didn't know what I know now then 

But I didn't know what I know now then
