For All We Know
Jette Torp Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love, look at the two of us
Strangers in many ways
We've got a lifetime to share
So much to say and as we go from day to day

I'll feel you close to me
But time alone will tell
Let's take a lifetime to say
I knew you well
For only time will tell us so
And love may grow for all we know

Love, look at the two of us
Strangers in many ways
Let's take a lifetime to say
I knew you well




For only time will tell us so
And love may grow for all we know
