And started reading about me
You'd never read them in her eyes
Ah, wouldn't you know me?
Simply pretended not to care
I passed it off as just in
Her total disconcertedness
And as I go through my life
I will give to her, my wife
All the sweet things I can find
I found her diary underneath
And started reading about me
Her meaning now is clear to see
And though she tried to hide
The love she'd waited for
Somebody she will be sure
Somebody she wouldn't see
Somebody she wouldn't love
Somebody she wouldn't show
And as I go through my life
I will wish for her his wife
All the sweet things she can find
All the sweet things they can find
I found her diary underneath
Wouldn't you know it? you
