One of Us Must Know (Sooner or Later)

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
I didn't mean to treat you so badYou shouldn't take it so personalI didn't mean to make you so sadYou just happened to be there, that's allWhen I saw you say "goodbye" to your friend and smileI thought that it was well understoodThat you'd be comin' back in a little whileI didn't know that you were sayin' "goodbye" for goodBut, sooner or later, one of us must knowYou just did what you're supposed to doSooner or later, one of us must knowThat I really did try to get close to youI couldn't see what you could show meYour scarf had kept your mouth well hidI couldn't see how you could know meBut you said you knew me and I believed you didWhen you whispered in my earAnd asked me if I was leavin' with you or herI didn't realize just what I did hearI didn't realize how young you wereBut, sooner or later, one of us must knowYou just did what you're supposed to doSooner or later, one of us must knowThat I really did try to get close to youI couldn't see when it started snowin'Your voice was all that I heardI couldn't see where we were goin'But you said you knew an' I took your wordAnd then you told me later, as I apologizedThat you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farmAn' I told you, as you clawed out my eyesThat I never really meant to do you any harmBut, sooner or later, one of us must knowYou just did what you're supposed to doSooner or later, one of us must knowThat I really did try to get close to you
