Cover art for I Knew You That Way lyrics by Luke Bryan

This song is about a lost love. He writes of the degree to which he knew this girl. They were so in love and so close, but time faded their love. Eventually time took her away from him. This song has a mellow tone to it, that reminds many listeners of lost love and broken hearts. He is almost mesmerized at the power time had on them. He keeps saying how well he knew her and how tightly he held onto her, but time still managed to rip them apart.
