You must be mistaken, It couldn't have been
You couldn't have seen him yesterday
He's doing some deal down in Baltimore now
I hate it when he's away

You must be mistaken, I'm sure that you are
There's more that one car with stickers on
And lots of young guys wear corduroy shirts
And I'd know if he hadn't gone

Take that look off your face. I can see through your smile
You would love to be right
I bet you didn't sleep good last night
Couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door
Well, I've got news for you: I knew before

If I'm not mistaken, it started last year
I'm not very clear how it began
I noticed a change, but I just closed my eyes
As only a woman can

No, I didn't dig deep. I did not want to know
Well, you don't interfere
When you're scared of the things you might hear
When he's back, you think I will end it right there and then
Well, my fairweather friend, you're wrong again

Take that look off your face!
I can see through your smile
You would love to be right
I bet you didn't sleep good last night
Couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door
Well, I've got news for you, I knew before

(Take that look off your face!)
I can see through your smile
You would love to be right
I bet you didn't sleep good last night
Couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door
Well, I've got news for you, I knew before!
