May Erlewine He Knows
You can tell by the lines around her eyes
The way she smiles, and all the ways she's cried
You can tell by her laugh her heart's been broke
And you can tell by the way he loves her that he knows
You can tell by her crooked smile, she's a living well
You can tell by her hands she's been through hell
And by the look in her eyes, she's been up all night
You can tell by the way he loves her that it's alright
[Chorus]
She says, "I like to be free"
He says, "I'd like to keep your freedom company"
She says, "I don't know what I'll do"
He says, "All you need to know is I love you"
You can tell by the way she talks, she's got something to say
You can tell by the way she moves, she's here to stay
And you can hear it when she sings that she's been scared
You can tell by the way he loves her that he cares
And you can tell by her messes, it's been a fight
You can tell by the way she turns off the light
You can see it every time she goes away
And you can tell by the way he loves her that it's okay
[Chorus]
She says, "I like to be free"
He says, "I'd like to keep your freedom company"
She says, "I don't know what I'll do"
He says, "All you need to know is I love you"
