On the day you left I didn't know

Which way to turn -- which way to go

I felt so bad -- I cursed the day that I was born.



And even now I just can't stand

To think of you with another man

But does he know, does he really know

What he's taken on?



I searched my soul, I wracked my brain

At times I thought I'd go insane

And every night I lay awake until the dawn.



Yes I was lost, I was confused

But he's the one who's being used

Yeah does he know, does he really know

What he's taken on?



Now he might think he's got your love

And that it came from God above

Threw you a line -- he sowed the seeds

He sees your beauty but I know your needs.



He believes that you're sincere

When you say love ain't living here

Yeah does he know -- does he really know

What he's taken on?



Now he might think he's got your love

And that it came from God above

Is he so blind that he can't see

You'll leave him like you left me.



You sailed away all by yourself

And I was left here on the shelf

I never thought I'd say these words

But I'm glad you're gone.



Yeah he's found truth -- certainty

Resolution, veracity

But does he know -- does he really know

What he's taken on?



Well does he know? Well does he know?

Well does he know? Well does he know?

No no no no no!
