Does He Know What He's Taken On - Lyrics - Gerry Rafferty

On the day you left I didn't know Which way to turn -- which way to go I felt so bad -- I cursed the day that I was born. And even now I just can't stand To think of you with another man But does he know, does he really know What he's taken on? I searched my soul, I wracked my brain At times I thought I'd go insane And every night I lay awake until the dawn. Yes I was lost, I was confused But he's the one who's being used Yeah does he know, does he really know What he's taken on? Now he might think he's 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 you're sincere When you say love ain't living here Yeah does he know -- does he really know What he's taken on? Now he might think he's got your love And that it came from God above Is he so blind that he can't see You'll leave him like you left me. You sailed away all by yourself And I was left here on the shelf I never thought I'd say these words But I'm glad you're gone. Yeah he's found truth -- certainty Resolution, veracity But does he know -- does he really know What he's taken on? Well does he know? Well does he know? Well does he know? Well does he know? No no no no no!
