Lyrics
A WOMAN ALWAYS KNOWS
When I walked in he hung up so quickly
I said "Who was that on the phone?"
He appeared to be lying
But my heart's been denying
WHAT A WOMAN ALWAYS KNOWS
When I found a shirt in his briefcase
I said "Why the change of clothes?"
He said "A meeting"
Though I can't prove he's cheating
A WOMAN ALWAYS KNOWS
I've been finding clues for months now
It's killing me, but I
Just tell myself it's a phase that'll pass
He loves me deep inside
When he comes home late for dinner
With an alibi and a rose
Though I've sworn I'll be tough
We kiss and make up
But the fear I'll lose him grows
I hate that I don't confront him
I hate that I'm living a lie
But the fact is, I still want him
I'd rather hear "I'm sorry" than "Good-bye"
But I can't play this game any longer,
Tonight, the truth is exposed:
I'll let him explain why, then
When I'm finished crying,
I'll forgive his regrets;
But I'll never forget
WHAT A WOMAN ALWAYS KNOWS
