From the recording 'Stark Naked'

Lyrics

She sat down on a corner of the bed
A lot like you’re sitting now.
Said: “I’d give a penny for your thoughts
What are you thinking now?

If you don’t know, then you won’t know.
You won’t know if you don’t know by now.
No, you won’t know if you don’t know by now.

She looked out of the corner of one eye
A lot like you’re looking now.
Turned her head, looked straight at me as she said:
“Could you love me anyhow?”

He said: “If you don’t know, then you won’t know.
You won’t know if you don’t know by now.
No, you won’t know if you don’t know by now.

They made love in a corner of that room;
A lot like where we’re supposed to be doing now.
And she cried and then he felt kind of sick inside,
And afterwards neither of them spoke.

And so, if you don’t know, then you won’t know.
You won’t know if you don’t know by now.
No, you won’t know if you don’t know by now.

They said goodbye on a corner of a street
A lot like where we’re standing now
She hung her head and she stumbled as she said:
“What do you think of me now?”

He said: “If you don’t know, then you won’t know.
You won’t know if you don’t know by now.
No, you won’t know if you don’t know by now.
If you don’t know by now, if you don’t know by now:
No, you won’t know if you don’t know by now.
