How Should I Know

Friends say, "It must be nice

How's the view from paradise?"

I smile sadly once or twice

And say, "How should I know?"

They wonder, "Why so blue?"

And when I tell them that we're through

They ask what on earth I'll do

I just say, "How should I know?"

Things happen in their season

For no reason taught in school

Far wiser hearts than mine

Have tried to divine

Love's ancient rule

That makes each one of us a fool

So why dwell in the past

On a flame that burned too fast?

Don't ask me why it didn't last

I'll just say, "How should I know?"

All that I know is that I miss you so

Things happen in their season

For no reason taught in school

Far wiser hearts than mine

Have tried to divine

Love's ancient rule

That makes each one of us a fool

So why dwell in the past

On a flame that burned too fast?

Don't ask me why it didn't last

I'll just say, "How should I know?"

All that I know is that I miss you so

Tonight

Tonight
