How can you just stand there

And act like nothing's wrong

You haven't even kissed me

Or held me for so long

There's no lipstick on your collar

There's no perfume on your clothes

There's no number on a matchbook

But a woman always knows.

A woman knows without asking

A woman knows what's left unsaid

A woman knows when a man's been sleeping

In someone else's bed.

I don't have all the answers

And you haven't left a clue

But in my heart there's just no question

You've found somebody new.

A woman knows without asking

A woman knows what's left unsaid

A woman knows when a man's been sleeping

In someone else's bed.

When you refuse to talk about it

In your silence my suspicion grows

You don't have to paint a picture

Somehow a woman knows

You don't have to paint a picture

Somehow a woman knows.
