Didn't Know
I think of all the women I know
And there’s one who comes to mind
She’s a lot like you and me
She’s lost her goddamn mind
Maybe you know her, She lives around here
She’s a friend of mine
On the surface she’s doing well
She says she’s doing fine
Chorus
I didn’t know
That’s how it could go
Til she told me so
She has a family and a job
Her house is pretty nice
I don’t mean to say she never smiles
She can have a good time
She says, I think of the girl that I was
And all I left behind
The weight of innocence I’m not
The girl I left behind
Chorus
I didn’t know
That’s how it could go
Til she told me so
Maybe it was there all along
Just a seed inside
And when the storm soaked the field
It was just a matter of time
Kids are asking but her man doesn’t have a clue
Says it’s not my fault
She never said anything
She kept it all under lock
Chorus
I didn’t know
That’s how it could go
Til she told me so
She says, I think of all the women I know
And those I left behind
I think of the girl that I’m not
And the one still inside
