Bob Dylan - One of Us Must Know
I didn't mean to treat you so bad
You shouldn't take it so personal
I didn't mean to make you so sad
You just happened to be there
that's all
When I saw you say goodbye
to your friend and smile
I thought that it was well understood
That you'd be coming back
in a little while
I didn't know that you were saying
goodbye for good
But sooner or later
one of us must know
You just did what you're supposed to do
Sooner or later
one of us must know
That I really did try to
get close to you
I couldn't tell what you could show me
Your scarf had
kept your mouth well hid
I couldn't tell how you could know me
But you said you knew me
and I believed you did
When you whispered in my ear
And asked me if I was leaving
with you or her
I didn't realize just what I did hear
I didn't realize how young you were
But sooner or later
one of us must know
You just did what you're supposed to do
Sooner or later
one of us must know
That I really did
try to get close to you
I couldn't hear when it started snowing
Your voice was all that I heard
I couldn't see that where we were going
But you said you knew and
I took your word
When you told me later
as I apologized
That you were just kidding me
you weren't really from the farm
An' I told you
as you clawed out my eyes
That I never really meant
to do you any harm
But sooner or later
one of us must know
You just did what you're supposed to do
Sooner or later
one of us must know
That I really did try
to get close to you
