Testo Does He Know What He's Taken On Gerry Rafferty
To think of you with another man
But does he know, does he really know
What heâs taken on?
I searched my soul, I wracked my brain
At times I thought Iâd go insane
And every night I lay awake until the dawn.
Yes I was lost, I was confused
But heâs the one whoâs being used
Yeah does he know, does he really know
What heâs taken on?
Now he might think heâs got your love
And that it came from God above
Threw you a line -- he sowed the seeds
He sees your beauty but I know your needs.
He believes that youâre sincere
When you say love ainât living here
Yeah does he know -- does he really know
What heâs taken on?
Now he might think heâs got your love
And that it came from God above
Is he so blind that he canât see
Youâll leave him like you left me.
You sailed away all by yourself
And I was left here on the shelf
I never thought Iâd say these words
But Iâm glad youâre gone.
Yeah heâs found truth -- certainty
Resolution, veracity
But does he know -- does he really know
What heâs taken on?
Well does he know? Well does he know?
Well does he know? Well does he know?
No no no no no!
