He would know

He would know Lyrics

(Dolly Parton)


In my mind I've made love to you often

But only in my mind can it be so

'Cause there's someone at home that's countin' on me

And if I did, I'm sure that he would know

Yes, he would know, yes, he could tell

For, he has loved me long enough to know me very well

And if I lied, he'd see it in my eyes

I know my guilt would show and he would know


But I must admit you're someone very special

And it would be so easy to let go

Makin' love to you could be so easy

But if I did, I'm sure that he would know


Yes, he would know, yes, he could tell

For, he has loved me long enough to know me very well

And if I lied, he'd see it in my eyes

I know my guilt would show and he would know


My conscience just won't let me make love to you

I know it would be sweet, but I just can't

When I go home to him I must be able

To look him in the eyes and say I ain't


'Cause he would know, yes, he could tell

For, he has loved me long enough to know me very well

And if I lied, he'd see it in my eyes

I know my guilt would show and he would know

He would know
