She came around at midnight With rain upon her shoes Said she'd been nowhere special I knew it wasn't true She smiled across the table And slowly closed the door She knows I know she's lying But I still ask for more She knows I know I know she knows No need to tell me why She knows I know I know she knows And still I let it lie I found a matchbook burning Beside the telephone A number on the cover That wasn't quite my own I asked her where she'd got it She laughed and shook her head She knows I know the answer Before a word is said She knows I know I know she knows No need to tell me why She knows I know I know she knows And still I let it lie No more questions No more names You keep your story I'll keep the flame She knows I know I know she knows No need to say goodbye She knows I know I know she knows And still I let it lie
