Lyrics Tim Buckley – I Know I’d Recognize Your Face

It’s been so long
Since you’ve been gone
I don’t know where to begin this song
Wherever you are

Lay next to me
Cry please don’t run
But I wouldn’t fight or carry a gun
I went far away
To start a new life
If I had stayed there
You’d be my wife

And I know I’d recognize your face
Your memory keeps haunting me
And I can’t forget what time won’t erase

You know it’s hard for me to come back now
There’s prison to face though the filing is done
?
Where can I find you
Daddy you have a son that’s never seen you
He looks just like you

And I know I’d recognize your face
Your memory keeps haunting me
And I can’t forget what time won’t erase

I’ve sent this letter so many times
It keeps coming back
No one here about that knew
Are you still lingering back

And I know I’d recognize your face
The season has come I can’t let go
And I’d know your sweet smile any place

And I know I’d recognize your face
(Any time you know now)
Anyplace anytime you know I’m still in love with you
And I know I’d recognize your face
