Lyrics










Everybody Knows



things get complicated
and we never quite know why
you can't escape your history
no matter how you try
she doesn't want to hear from you
and it's something that you've done
she never meant to hurt you
but you'll never be the one

her head is filled with secret stuff
that you can't know
ain't no use you going there at all
everybody wants to be the one she calls her own
you'll find you're not alone
the time has come you should be moving on
cos everybody knows it's over, but you

it's never really easy
cos we're none of us the same
what might be right for one girl
could drive another one insane
fragile woman ? read the signs
handle her with care
greedy finger, hungry eyes
won't get you anywhere
