The Girl I Knew Somewhere Lyrics - Live 1967 - Monkees

You tell me that you've never been this way before. 

You tell me things I know that I've heard somewhere. 

You're standing in the places and you're 

staring down through faces, that bring to mind traces 

of a girl, a girl that I knew somewhere. 

I just can't put my finger on what it is 

that says to me "Watch out! Don't believe her." 

I can't give any reasons girl, 

my thoughts are bound down in a whirl. 

I just can't think who in the world was that girl; 

I know I met her somewhere.

Someway, somehow this same thing was done. 

Someone, somewhere did me this same wrong.

Well, goodbye dear, I just can't take this chance again. 

My fingers are still burning from the last time. 

And if your love was not a game, I only have myself to blame. 

That's as may be, I can't explain. 

Just ask the girl that I knew somewhere.
