How'd You Know

I hear distress
a frightful night-cry sound
and I'm too scared
to see what's the matter
I pretend I just don't hear
I just don't hear

There must be something
to keep us in one place
And if I knew
I would take it
I'd take it in my hands
I'd make it happen

Chorus:
And Oh... how'd you know
I'd only hold you for awhile
How'd You Know
We'd wave again farewell
How'd You Know
that I'd take the other road

Regret's a man
who leaves your heart on fire
and all the days roll away
while you're hanging on some past
you can't change
another day goes by

Midnight silence
the tears burned our faces
and words only made it harder
for us to understand
what it was
that left us divided

Chorus

And Oh... how'd you know
I'd only hold you for awhile
How'd You Know
We'd wave again farewell
with no smiles
When I took the other road
