Lloyd Cole - What He Doesn't Know

if i told you that i'd never really cared
and if i told you that i'd never cried you'd know that i lied
you'd know i lied
and if i told you that i'd found somebody new
it wouldn't make it any easier and what he doesn't know
won't hurt at all

you know just as well as i that he's a better man than i
and i know you know

guess i never got around to telling you
i guess that if i told you now then i'd have nothing to lose
well i think of you
'cause if i told you that i'd found another girl
it wouldn't make it any easier and what he doesn't know
won't hurt at all

you know just as well as i that he's a better man than i
you know just as well as i, you know just as well as i
he's a better man than i, he's a better man than i could ever be
